The text does not specify the specific attitudes that have motivated the file, but the celebrations of the Argentine players in that final gave much to talk about, especially that of the goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez, who after collecting the trophy for the best goalkeeper in the World Cup made an obscene gesture, taking the trophy to his crotch. He was also filmed in the dressing room making fun of the French star, Kylian Mbappé.
The French Football Federation (FFF) complained at that time about the treatment of his team and Mbappé after the French defeat and the matter had a great impact in the European country.
FIFA also pointed out this Friday the opening of a disciplinary file against the Croatian Federation for “potential violations of articles 13 (discrimination) and 16 (order and security in matches) of the FIFA Disciplinary Code”, during the match for the third place in the World Cup, won by 2-1 to Morocco. The FIFA statement does not detail the specific attitudes either.
During the celebrations of the Croatian national team, videos were broadcast on social networks in which players of that team they sing nationalist chants with fascist overtones.
One of the players present in the video, the defender Dejan Lovrena new Lyon player, recently defended himself against the accusations in statements to AFP, pointing out that it was “a patriotic song” that simply speaks of “loving the country”.
