A petition has surfaced online, calling for the exclusion of the Argentine national team from the 2026 World Cup. The petition, hosted on a dedicated website, has already garnered over 3 million signatures from individuals demanding that "La Albiceleste" be administratively eliminated.
"It's clear that FIFA and the referees are biased towards Lionel Messi and the Argentine team. Why should anyone else even participate when the winner is already predetermined? Eliminate Argentina from the World Cup and give everyone else a fair chance," states the website.
This movement follows several controversial incidents during Argentina's second and third knockout matches of the World Cup against Egypt (3-2) and Switzerland (3-1), which sparked widespread discontent among many sports fans.
Meanwhile, Argentina is set to face England on Wednesday, July 15th, at 10:00 PM Bulgarian time.
This match, along with all 104 games of the 2026 World Cup across the USA, Canada, and Mexico, can be watched live on bnt.sportal.bg.
