FIFA has opened a disciplinary case against Mexican "Pachuca" player Gustavo Cabral. This was reported by www.euro-football.ru.
This decision was made due to his actions during the match against Madrid's "Real" in the World Club Championship. This information was disseminated by the Reuters news agency, citing the organization's press service.
The match held on June 22 in Charlotte ended with a score of 3:1 in favor of the Spanish club.
