Can Albiceleste lose its star when one of the Argentine world champions was suspended for doping?
Thunderbolt in Argentina! Coming among the sacred world champions in Qatar this winter, Papu Gomez was controlled positive to a product appearing on the list of molecules prohibited by FIFA. Thus convinced of doping, the Monza player – who played in Seville at the time of his control – received a two -year suspension.
Does such a sanction question the world title of the Albiceleste obtained at the expense of the French team last December? The Spanish media REVO recalls the rules laid down by the World Anti -Doping Code in this area, specifying that such a forfeiture can only occur from two proven cases within a collective.

The other sine qua non condition for such a outcome remains the taking of the doping product during the competition concerned. However, the facts date back to the beginning of November, just before the tournament, in terms of Papu Gomez. The Blues therefore have no chance of recovering on the green carpet their third star escaped in penalties this sad night of December 18, 2022.
