A primary focus of the investigation is the display of a banner by Argentina players, reading 'Las Malvinas son Argentinas,' after their semi-final win against England. This political demonstration is a potential breach of FIFA's disciplinary code, which prohibits non-sporting displays, and the AFA was previously fined for a similar banner in 2014. FIFA is also examining alleged discriminatory chants and gestures by Argentina fans referencing the Falkland Islands, along with other potential breaches such as late kick-offs and security protocol failures. Separately, disciplinary action has been opened against several Argentina players and an assistant coach for their involvement in a post-match brawl following their final World Cup final loss to Spain.
