Leandro Paredes refuses to apologise for World Cup final 'punches' as FIFA overturn red

Argentina star Leandro Paredes, who violently attacked Spain's stars following the World Cup final, has not apologised for his actions. The midfielder has instead expressed pride in his side's efforts during the tournament. Paredes was spotted kicking and punching as he shoved Eric Garcia to the ground and grappled with Gavi, interrupting Spain's celebrations. Nauel Molina appeared to instigate the violent altercation by throwing a punch at Manchester City star Rodri. During the post-match drama, it was claimed that Paredes was shown a red card for his actions. However, the red card was removed from the record, and FIFA took no disciplinary action, according to BBC Sport . No apology was forthcoming in Paredes first public words following the chaos. Paredes wrote: "Thank you, Argentina! I love you today and always. Today, I write with a heavy heart, having been unable to bring our country the joy it so richly deserves. "But with a chest full of pride for having given everything we had and for flying our flag at the very top once again! Thank you to everyone who was part of this national team. "To this group of players who gave their all to represent this jersey, fighting for it until the very last second of every match! It was an honour to be part of the best Argentine national team in history." While a red card is not on record, FIFA have confirmed that they will investigate what took place. JOIN US ON FACEBOOK!

He went for them. There is no place or space for that," Alan Shearer said on commentary. "We know how much it means to them and we know how much it hurts to lose, but there is a way to lose. Too many times we have seen that from Argentina. The reaction after the final whistle is terrible." Joe Hart added: "The game's done, they can have absolutely no complaints about what happened today. Disgusting behaviour." Argentina boss Lionel Scaloni suggested his team 'knew how to lose', when speaking after the final. "We are gracious in victory, and we must be gracious in defeat," he said. "Today, we are showing that we know how to lose. We lost the match, and we accept it, but that doesn't mean we stop living or forget everything we did to get here."
