England vs Argentina, anthems booed as match turns feisty

The ads went up quick. Gonna be a good one. #WorldCup #Spain #Argentina

If you passively hand the football to world class players for 30 minutes and say to them, "OK, try and score against us", unless you have an unbelievable defence, they're going to score and you're going to lose. We don't, they did and the result was inevitable. #ENGARG #ENGvARG

Ah, Harry Styles’s mordant Sign of the Times. I assume the BBC had Wonderwall set up if it went the other way. #EngVArg

I know little about football, but if you put 11 players in the 18 yard box and allow the World Champions to have strike after strike after strike, surely it's only a matter of time before they score. You might do it for 10 mins, but not half an hour...punditry bollox over.😕 #WorldCup #EngvArg

Well played Argentina 🇦🇷 ! But what a disappointing final 40min from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. Why do you change your game tactics and play 11 back to try and defend a 1-0 lead for 40min?

Enzo Fernández’s long-ranger dragged Argentina level, then Lautaro Martínez hit England with the stoppage-time punch. Brutal way for a semi to turn. #WorldCup2026 #ENGvARG #FERNANDEZ #MARTINEZ

That’s not a small amount of booing over anthems 😬 #EngvArg

I’m having a Pot Noodle because FOOTBALL. (I don’t fucking know.) #ENGvARG

Argentina and England fans absolutely rinsing each other’s national anthems! This is gonna have needle! #WorldCup #ENGvARG

The first football match I ever saw live was in Bocca stadium in Argentina. I was sitting in a caged 'family' section for safety and it was still utterly terrifying...like sitting in the Collesseum. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Have never left a venue quicker. Good luck lads 😬 #Football #EngvArg

Well, at least we've still got the rugby on Saturday #ENGvARG

Me, nervous? Definitely not, no siree. Honest 🥴 C’mon England!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 #ENGvARG #WorldCup ⚽️

nothing else can make you feel both very old and woefully underachieving than being the exact same age as messi right now 😂 #ENGvARG

Well, this is starting off a little in your face!! #EngvArg

Now I’m not a master tactician but what the hell sort of game plan shuts up shop after going 1-0 up on 55 minutes. I wasn’t closely following the game but I kept thinking are we ever going to get out of our half. Bogey team does it again, but our manager helped I feel. #EngvArg
