Footage has emerged showing Argentina fans throwing objects at YouTube streamer IShowSpeed during a World Cup semi-final, an incident that comes as FIFA is already investigating separate allegations of racism connected to the tournament. The clip has circulated widely, adding to the controversy already surrounding a fiercely contested and often ill-tempered England v Argentina semi-final in which Argentina won 2-1.

Specific details of the incident, including exactly when and where it took place and the nature of the objects thrown, are not fully outlined in the available report. The wider match was also marked by other flashpoints, including a Jude Bellingham slap on an Argentinian player and Argentina fans displaying a banner asserting a claim over the Falkland Islands, underlining the heightened tensions around the fixture that FIFA is now looking into.
