The archer of the Argentine national team, Emiliano ‘Dibu’ Martínezwill miss the next two games of the Qualifiers World Cup fans, since today he was suspended for two matches by the disciplinary court of the FIFA.
The measure was defined by two specific events in which the goalkeeper was involved: the blow to the television camera in the 2-1 defeat against Colombia, in the Qualifiers, and the obscene gesture in the 3-0 victory against Chile, also for the World Cup qualifying contest.
“The Respondent is suspended for two (2) matches. Said suspension will be served during the next official match(es) of the representative team of the Argentine Football Association in accordance with art. 69 CDF “explained the Argentine Football Association in its statement.
In addition, the Aston Villa footballer from England must pay a fine of 15,000 Swiss francs, about $18,000.
Therefore, he will miss the double qualifying date for the 2026 World Cup against Venezuela, on October 10 as a visitor, and against Bolivia, on the 15th of next month at the Monumental stadium.
