THE FUSE

Spain ultimately clinched the World Cup title through a dramatic extra-time winner from Ferran Torres, though the match was soon marred by chaotic scenes at the final whistle. In a statement issued on Wednesday, FIFA confirmed that Molina is under investigation for one count of unsporting behavior - a charge also facing team-mate Thiago Almada and Spain’s Gavi. These disciplinary actions stem from a heated post-match brawl in which Molina appeared to strike Rodri, while Paredes was spotted grabbing Eric Garcia by the throat and wrestling Gavi to the ground.
