The Argentine Football Association (AFA) has successfully negotiated a loophole with FIFA to reduce the impact of severe suspensions handed to Leandro Paredes and Nahuel Molina. Both players were heavily sanctioned following a violent brawl after their World Cup final defeat to Spain, but a new ruling means they can serve their bans during upcoming friendly fixtures.

Barcelona have officially abandoned plans to honour their eight Spanish World Cup winners ahead of Thursday's La Liga fixture against Athletic Club. The decision follows recent clashes between supporters and national police, prompting the Catalan club to scrap the pre-match ceremony at Camp Nou amid rising political tensions.
