World Cup Final: FIFA Begins Disciplinary Proceedings Against Argentina

Federation of International Football Association (FIFA) has announced disciplinary proceedings against Argentina for “offensive behaviour” during their World Cup final triumph over France last month.

Gatekeepers News reports that FIFA said Argentina had potentially breached rules regarding “offensive behaviour and violations of the principles of fair play” and “misconduct of players and officials”.

The South Americans were crowned World Cup winners after defeating France on penalties in Qatar after a dramatic 3-3 draw.

Goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez made a lewd gesture with his goalkeeper of the tournament trophy after the match, before being filmed in the dressing room mocking French star Kylian Mbappe.

World football’s governing body is also investigating the Argentinian FA over breaching media and marketing regulations.

Croatia are also being investigated for potential violations of “discrimination” and “order and security at matches” rules.

Players appeared to sing a song with fascist connotations following their third-place play-off victory over Morocco.

Defender Dejan Lovren defended himself and his teammates, recently telling AFP it was “a patriotic song which relates to my country, which means that I love my country”.
