Recently, FIFA issued a major announcement that it would launch an investigation into Qatar World Cup winners Argentina. The core issue of the investigation centers on the irregularities that emerged during the post-match awards and celebrations. Among them, goalkeeper Damian Martinez has become the focus of the investigation, and his Golden Glove award is in jeopardy.

Argentina won the title on penalties in a close encounter with France, with Damian Martinez playing a key role. However, when he received the Golden Glove award at the ceremony, he made some indecent gestures in front of billions of viewers around the world in a staggering scene. Now, it seems to be expected that he will be targeted by FIFA. However, the exact penalties are not yet clear, facing fines and suspensions for minor offences, or the possibility of losing the Golden Gloves honor.

In addition, all of Argentina's players stayed on the field after the game to party and failed to attend a press conference for interviews within the allotted time, violating tournament rules. While this is a minor incident, it is usually resolved by paying a fine, not a suspension.
