The first punishment comes in Qatar 2022, FIFA fines Germany

The first punishment comes in Qatar 2022, FIFA fines Germany

Germany is the first team to be banned by FIFA at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

In a statement issued by FIFA, as reported by foreign media , it is said that the German team has been fined 10,000 Swiss francs.

The reason for the fine was the decision of the coach of the German team, Hansi Flick, who appeared alone at the press conference before the match with Spain. Flick refused to take a player to the conference on the grounds that he wanted the focus to be on the challenge against the Spaniards.

Germany are currently bottom of Group E. The loss to Japan left them in a difficult situation to top the group.

Sunday's match with Spain gave them just one point, leaving their qualification options open.

In the December 1 challenge against Costa Rica, Germany must grab 3 points to ensure passage to the 1/16 stage.
