Canonical safe wording

Mateu Lahoz provided witness information or testimony in the Negreira investigation. The reviewed record does not identify him as accused, investigated or charged, or identify a Negreira-linked payment to him. He received no further appointment after the Argentina–Netherlands quarter-final; no official FIFA source reviewed confirms a disciplinary removal.

Never state

  • Mateu Lahoz was corrupt
  • Lahoz was part of the Negreira arrangement
  • Lahoz was sent home
