FIFA approves change after Argentina suspension
The International Football Federation (FIFA) has decided to modify the sanctions imposed on three players from the Argentine national team following the 2026 World Cup final. Their bans are now limited to official friendly matches or games organized by the South American Football Confederation (CONMEBOL), excluding matches in official FIFA tournaments. These adjustments came at the request of the Argentine Football Association and resulted in a reduced penalty duration, which previously included financial and fan-related restrictions, now reflecting a shorter period in terms of matches. The sanctions were imposed after chaotic incidents during Argentina's celebrations following their loss in the final to Spain. The players and assistant coach were convicted, with Leandro Paredes suspended for 10 matches, Nahuel Molina for 7 matches, Tiago Almada for 1 match, and Roberto Ayala for 3 matches.
