Argentina secured a dramatic two to one comeback victory over England in the World Cup semi-finals, with late goals from Enzo Fernández and Lautaro Martínez after Anthony Gordon had given England the lead. Following this victory, the Argentine Football Association declared July 15 a National Football Teams Day to commemorate the achievement. In other news, FIFA President Gianni Infantino received support from the Argentine Football Association and Mexico's football federation amid ongoing governance controversies. Both associations praised Infantino's leadership despite the backlash over a now-abandoned proposal to sell off some commercial rights to the World Cup. FIFPRO criticized Infantino for what it termed a "profound abuse of presidential power" regarding the privatization plan, emphasizing the need for governance reforms. Meanwhile, FIFA is expected to cover around eighty percent of Manchester United midfielder Manuel Ugarte's wages after he suffered a serious knee injury during the World Cup. Real Madrid announced a seven-year deal for Ivory Coast international Yan Diomande, who had an impressive World Cup, despite his team's elimination in the round of 32. In the FIBA Women’s World Cup, USA Basketball announced its roster, featuring players like Aliyah Boston and Paige Bueckers, while the Phoenix Mercury will have Kelsey Plum and Kahleah Copper representing Team USA.
