FIFA Opens Disciplinary Proceedings Against Argentina Over World Cup IncidentsPreviousNext

FIFA has opened disciplinary proceedings against Argentina's football federation and several players following incidents at the World Cup. Charges include assault and unsporting behavior by players after the final against Spain, discriminatory chants by fans, and the display of a political banner asserting Argentine sovereignty over the Falkland Islands after the semifinal win against England. FIFA cited use of a sports event for non-sporting demonstrations. All parties have been given the opportunity to respond before decisions are made.
