FIFA opens assault case against Argentina trio

FIFA has opened disciplinary proceedings for assault against Argentina players Leandro Paredes and Nahuel Molina and assistant coach Roberto Ayala following clashes with Spain players after the World Cup final at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. The proceedings stem from on-field altercations involving Spain's Gavi, Rodri, and Dani Olmo during post-match celebrations. Additionally, Argentina's Thiago Almada and Spain's Gavi face separate charges of unsporting conduct, while the Argentine Football Association (AFA) faces multiple proceedings for alleged regulatory breaches during the tournament.
