What is the Argentine claim on the Falklands? Proximity?
Or something more?
Brits had settled there before Argentina was a country. And in the last vote on the matter, just over a decade ago, 99.8% of the population wanted to remain a British overseas territory.

And the latest news is that the England game won’t be shown on free TV here again. Can you see a pattern here? So I need a stream again. Luckily, that ends tomorrow, and I can fully concentrate on our preseason.
Meh.

To the sport: I do hope, Spain wins tomorrow the World Cup title. Favouritely Nico Williams or Lamine Yamal instead Lionel Messi.

Years of debate regarding who is the best ever player.
All subjective of course, trying to compare different eras.
If Argentina win tomorrow, Messi (and some team mates) will be the first in 64 years to have won the World Cup twice.
If they win, and Messi scores more than the 3 Mbappe is going to get tonight, I think he definitely gies down as the best ever.
Watching us currently pissing all over the Argies at the rugby Nations Championship is quite satisfying.

Worse here in NZ when the All Blacks lose
TRC, what’s with the profile avatar dude?
Meh, Pele already did it.
When it comes to the debate over the greatest ever, I don’t think there can really be any discussion.
I have France as strong favorites tonight. Not only because of their skill and team, but I think they are mentally stronger too. The English press is full of toxicity around this round, and I think the French value a medal far more than the English (reading the English press, a bronze medal is apparantly nothing, despite England seldom if ever having the chance to get one).
Not in England at the moment , does anyone there care about this game, at all?
A loser’s play off is never worth caring about.

An England fan who was so convinced the Three Lions would win the World Cup that he got a huge tattoo celebrating the “win” has decided to add the words “only joking” underneath.
Sean Carrington got the foot-long £550 inking of the trophy with the words “England World Cup Winner 2026” written below it after the team beat DR Congo.
But along with millions of other supporters he was left railing at another frustrating England exit after Wednesday night’s late defeat against Argentina in the semi-final.
The 36-year-old, from Wigan, Greater Manchester, said he had “no regrets” about having it done and was now considering how to have it amended.
However, he admitted he was pleased he rowed back on his original plan - which was to get “It’s Coming Home” emblazoned across his chest.
Sean watched the match at Manchester’s Depot Mayfield fanzone and said the mood was hopeful when England took the lead with Anthony Gordon’s neat strike in the 55th minute.
“The atmosphere was crazy until the very end. But we sat back and gave it away,” he said.
“It was depressing - it ended up so flat.”
Regarding his tattoo, he said: “I’ll probably get ‘only joking’ added to it.”
Konate starting gives England a chance.
