The semi-final between Argentina and England was highly charged, and former England goalkeeper Paul Robinson bluntly stated during a live broadcast that Argentina's substitute Barco made the most unsportsmanlike move of the tournament.

After Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandes equalized with a long-range shot, Strasbourg defender Barco rushed to the England bench and celebrated wildly in front of Tuchel's entire team.

Robinson commented during the live broadcast: "Both sides lacked sportsmanship today, and Barco's performance was probably the most unsportsmanlike moment of this World Cup."

Post-match footage captured England's key player Bellingham confronting Barco, perhaps still harboring resentment over Barco's earlier provocative behavior.
