Al-Miron expelled over mouth covering amid Messi's pass}
The implementation of the "Prostiani Law" at the 2026 World Cup sparked widespread controversy after Paraguayan player Miguel Almirón was sent off for covering his mouth during a verbal altercation, while the referee took no action against Argentine star Lionel Messi despite his similar gesture. The new rule stipulates that players who provocatively or offensively cover their mouths can be sent off, but it depends on the context of the conversation and the player's intent. This has led to inconsistent enforcement and criticism over the preferential treatment given to certain stars.
