FIFA has opened disciplinary proceedings against the Argentine Football Association (AFA) following several incidents during the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States, Mexico, and Canada.
One of FIFA’s main concerns is whether the Malvinas banner displayed by Argentina’s players could be considered a political message, something prohibited under the organization’s regulations.
On an individual level, Molina and Paredes are facing allegations of aggressive conduct following the final, while Almada and Gavi have been cited for alleged unsporting behavior.
All parties involved have been given the opportunity to submit their responses before FIFA’s Disciplinary Committee reaches a decision.
After reviewing those explanations, the committee will determine whether any sanctions will be imposed and what form they may take.
