ISIS World Cup threat concerns Argentina
Posted Friday, October 27, 2017 by Marca.com
Claudio Tapia, the president of the Argentine FA, is worried about the threat made to the South American nation's football team, ahead of the 2018 World Cup.
A group associated with ISIS recently threatened to cause trouble at the tournament, while a frightening image of Lionel Messi bleeding from one eye and wearing a prison outfit was also published.
Given that La Albiceleste are travelling to Russia in November to play the World Cup hosts and to take on Nigeria, Tapia has met with Victor Koronelli, the Russian ambassador in Argentina.
According to Ole newspaper, the team's security arrangements were discussed.
