❌ Also at the World Cup, FIFA extends Prestianni's ban | OneFootball

If UEFA had already sanctioned him with a six-match ban for his incident with Vinicius, FIFA has now increased that punishment.

What happened between Vinicius and Prestianni continues to cause a stir: an act of racism for which UEFA initially responded by handing the Argentine a six-match suspension.

But it has recently emerged that FIFA has also taken action and has decided to extend the player’s ban worldwide.

This new sanction will prevent him from playing in Argentina’s next two matches if Scaloni calls him up. Prestianni would therefore miss the first two matches of the World Cup if he is selected by his national team.
