FIFA revokes the World Cup credentials of Paraguayan football commentator Jorge “Chipi” Vera following an on-air expletive-filled rant criticising the organisation and match officials. The dispute centres on Paraguay’s 1-0 win over Türkiye, where forward Miguel Almirón is sent off during first-half stoppage time. Almirón is dismissed by Salvadoran referee Iván Barton after the forward is seen covering his mouth while confronting Türkiye’s Mert Müldür, in relation to a tournament rule that forbids covering mouths during on-field confrontations. During live television coverage, Vera reacts to the red card with a heated tirade directed at FIFA and the referee, including language reported as calling officials “thieves.” Several outlets report Vera loses his credentials as a consequence of his conduct on air. Across the reports, FIFA’s decision is presented as an administrative disciplinary action tied to the commentator’s remarks, while the underlying match incident involves the red card for Almirón under the new mouth-covering rule.
