Spain beat Argentina 1-0 in a tense 2026 World Cup final to win the title for the second time. The game ended in a tense atmosphere, with Argentina reduced to 10 men after Enzo Fernandez was sent off. Emotions boiled over after Spain midfielder Garvey clashed with Leandro Paredes after the final whistle, while Argentina assistant coach Roberto Ayala punched Dani Olmo.Despite being involved in the post-match melee, the Barcelona midfielder does not believe the Argentinian player should face a suspension. Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, said in an interview with Popular Science: “No, no. To be honest, I don’t think they should be suspended. I know it’s not a good image for kids, but I think there’s also a more aggressive side to football. “He added that any penalties should have been during the game and not after. “Maybe the most logical thing for me would be to send him off during the game and that’s it. But like I said, in the end I think it’s all football and it always is,” he pointed out.FIFA has launched an investigation into the events after the final whistle, despite GAVI urging against further penalties. According to the report, several Argentine players may still face disciplinary action based on the results of the investigation. The governing body is expected to review the confrontations before deciding whether any additional sanctions are necessary.
