Argentina and England supporters were out in force in Atlanta ahead of the World Cup semi-final on Wednesday.
With a place in the final at stake and given the political tension over the Falkland Islands, it was an enormous occasion.
Indeed, it was undoubtedly the biggest game of the World Cup so far, and the fans turned out accordingly.
There were plenty more Argentina and England supporters in Atlanta than the 75,000 in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Argentina supporters create incredible atmosphere in Atlanta before England clash
Argentina and England are two of the most-supported teams in the World Cup, alongside Brazil and Mexico.
Both fan bases have followed their respective countries around the United States, and in England’s case, Mexico too.
However, Argentinians massively outnumbered the English in Atlanta, filling the streets with blue and white.
Their flags, banners, and music created an amazing atmosphere in the city from several days before the game until kick-off.
Having won the semi-final, thousands of Argentinians will soon travel to New Jersey to celebrate making the final.
If they win the tournament in Lionel Messi’s last World Cup, it will probably prompt the biggest celebration in their history.
