FIFA Suspends Argentina's Martinez For Two Matches

By IANS News September 28, 2024 • 10:52 AM View: 747

The Argentine Football Federation: Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano "Dibu" Martinez has been suspended by FIFA's disciplinary committee for two matches for "violating principles of fair play".

The custodian will miss Argentina's next month's World Cup qualifiers against Venezuela and Bolivia.

Martinez violated FIFA's code of conduct during the Copa America matches against Chile and Colombia earlier this month. After the win against Chile, the goalkeeper was seen holding a replica of the Copa America trophy to his groin area, recreating the celebration he did after the 2022 FIFA World Cup win.
