England-Argentina rivalry revisited: players recall 1998 and 2002 World Cup moments

Former players from both nations have reflected on key incidents from their World Cup encounters, including a red card, a disputed penalty, and a disallowed goal.

• In 1998, Argentina defeated England 4-3 on penalties after David Beckham was sent off for kicking Diego Simeone.
• Simeone said Beckham did nothing to him and that he had played the fool to draw the red card.
• In 2002, England won 1-0, with David Beckham scoring a penalty won by Michael Owen; Mauricio Pochettino stated Owen dived.
• Michael Owen acknowledged he could have stayed on his feet after being fouled for the penalty.
