After Argentina’s dramatic win against England in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, two of its star footballers reportedly hired private security to safeguard their homes in the United Kingdom.
According to reports from The Sun, Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister and Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez took precautionary measures following their national team’s high-stakes semi-final victory over England.
The extra security detail patrolled the players’ residences for 48 hours amid concerns over potential backlash from fans after the intense match.
Sources confirmed that neither property faced any incidents or vandalism attempts during this period.
The memorable match saw Argentina overcome a one-goal deficit, with Enzo Fernandez and Lautaro Martinez scoring crucial goals to secure a 2-1 comeback win after Anthony Gordon had initially put England ahead.
