ZAArgentina has designated July 15 as 'National Football Teams Day' to honor its 2-1 victory over England in the 2026 FIFA World Cup semi-final. The decision was made unanimously by the Argentine Football Association (AFA) during an executive committee meeting. The match, which featured a dramatic comeback with goals from Enzo Fernandez and Lautaro Martinez, is being commemorated as a historic moment for the nation. The tribute extends to all national teams, including youth, men's and women's squads, as well as futsal and beach soccer teams. The victory sparked controversy due to some players' references to the Falkland Islands (Malvinas), reigniting the sovereignty dispute with the UK.
