Argentina Coach Denies Punching Spain Player After World Cup Final

Argentina assistant coach Roberto Ayala says he didn't punch Spain's Dani Olmo. Spain won the World Cup with an extra-time goal by Ferran Torres.

After the game, some Argentina players got very upset. Argentina's Nahuel Molina hit Spain's Rodri, and then coach Ayala got into a fight with Olmo. It looked like Ayala threw a punch, but he says it was just a push. He says he reacted because of something Olmo said.

Ayala said, 'I'm sorry, but I couldn't let what the other person said change my behavior.'

Ayala said, 'I'm sorry, but we need to move on from this.'

Ayala said it was a push, not a punch, and he will apologize to Olmo in person if he sees him. He said he reacted to something Olmo said.

Ayala said, 'It's sad, and we have to accept what happened on the field. When the game ended, I saw a fight and tried to stop it.'

Ayala took responsibility for his actions. He said he tried to separate the players, but things got out of control.

FIFA is investigating Argentina for possible rule-breaking after the game.

FIFA reviewed the match report and decided to look into possible breaches of their rules.

FIFA said they will investigate what happened after the game and might take action against Argentina.

FIFA will give more information after they finish their investigation.
