FIFA, the World soccer's governing body, has opened disciplinary proceedings into Sunday's Brazil vs Argentina FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 qualifier which was abandoned after five minutes amid farcical scenes.
Brazilian health authorities invaded the pitch to stop the game after accusing four of Argentina's English Premier League players of violating the country's COVID-19 quarantine rules.
"Following the analysis of the official match reports related to the FIFA World Cup qualifier match between Brazil and Argentina, FIFA can confirm that disciplinary proceedings have been opened involving both member associations," FIFA said on Tuesday.
"The two teams were asked to provide further information on the facts that led to the suspension of the match, which will be gathered and then thoroughly reviewed by FIFAs Disciplinary Committee," it added.
