Cristian Romero responds to criticism from former England defender Gary Neville after Argentina beat England to reach the World Cup final. Multiple outlets report that Romero takes issue with Neville’s earlier comments questioning him and his Argentina team-mate Lisandro Martinez ahead of their semi-final meeting. After the match in Atlanta, where Argentina win 2-1 to book their place in the final, Romero publicly pushes back at Neville, describing the remarks in dismissive terms. The reports indicate Romero’s reaction comes directly after Argentina’s qualification, and it frames Neville’s prior questioning as inappropriate. While the coverage centres on Romero’s retort, the underlying sports result is consistent across sources: Argentina defeat England 2-1 in the World Cup semi-final and advance to the final. The reactions are presented as a post-match exchange between a player and a former commentator, with Romero defending his and Martinez’s standing as the tie concludes with Argentina progressing.
