Atlanta turned sky blue and white: stunning send-off before semi-final | OneFootball

The buildup to the semifinal between Argentina and England is already being played out on the streets of Atlanta. Thousands of Albiceleste fans took part in the traditional rally and brought color to the lead-up to the clash that will decide one of the World Cup finalists.

After Les Bleus were eliminated, there was an ironic minute of silence, and they quickly shifted their focus to England with the classic chant: “If you don’t jump, you’re English”, along with other songs.

The rally, held at Underground Atlanta, was the biggest turnout since the start of the World Cup, not counting the one in Miami. Among the thousands of fans, there were also numerous flags referencing the Malvinas Islands, although FIFA still bans bringing any flag or item with political content into the stadium.

Just hours before the match, the anticipation is also reflected in ticket demand. Resale prices reached amounts close to $3,000 for the cheapest seats.
