ARFollowing Argentina's 3-2 victory over Egypt in the 2026 World Cup round of 16, celebrations turned chaotic in Córdoba, Argentina. A jewelry store was robbed by 10 individuals who used fireworks and stones to break into the shop, stealing watches, rings, and bracelets. The police were preoccupied with dispersing crowds at the Patio Olmos mall, allowing the robbery to occur. Three suspects were detained. Meanwhile, clashes between police and fans escalated at the mall, involving bottles and stones. The police later regained control. The incidents followed similar disturbances after Argentina's previous win against Cape Verde, prompting increased police presence but failing to prevent chaos. Authorities reported recovered phones and items from the jewelry store, a police officer injured, and seized chains and knives, though no fatalities were reported.
