The rivalry ahead of today's second World Cup semi-final clash between England and Argentina is reaching increasingly bizarre proportions. Local British media reports that one of the largest and most recognizable supermarket chains has decided to remove all types of Argentine wine from its shelves.

An even more intriguing decision has been made by the English branch of the American brand KFC. A corporate internal email has informed all employees named "Arge" or "Tina" to take a fully paid day off on Wednesday. This measure is reportedly in support of the English national team's efforts to send Argentina home.

"While we believe in and value every team member, ahead of such a big match, we feel it's only right that anyone named 'Arge' or 'Tina' should 'go home'," the special email stated. The match between "La Albiceleste" and the "Three Lions" is scheduled for tonight at 10:00 PM Bulgarian time (8:00 PM GMT).
