-Thiago Almada (Argentina): 1-match ban + $30,000 fine
-Roberto Ayala (Argentina assistant coach): 3-match ban + $30,000 fine
-Pablo Gavi (Spain): 1-match ban + $30,000 fine
These bans apply to upcoming national-team games only.
Paredes and Molina will miss a huge chunk of the next international windows.
