"I never thought about applying the Falkland's war to it, that would make a good rivalry."
You basically take one dirty game in 1966 where the England manager said the Argentines were like animals (they took exception to this), stir things up with the Falklands war, through on some petrol with Maradonas Hand of God goal and then put the whole fuel dump on with Diego Simeone getting David Beckham sent off in 1998. I also think the Argentines reckon Michael Owen dived to get a penalty when we beat them in 2002.
So what youre left with is a pretty heated encounter whenever the two sides meet. I love it its a proper international football rivalry.
