England fined £50,000 by FA for unauthorized socks

Following England’s quarter-final win over Sweden, Three Lions were fined £50,000 by FA for breaching media and marketing regulations and Fifa equipment regulations. England players Dele Alli, Eric Dier and Raheem Sterling wore "unauthorised" socks at the World Cup. The Swedish FA has also been punished with the same fine for a similar sock offence earlier in the tournament. This has become the second highest fine after Argentina's 105,000 Swiss franc punishment when their fans threw objects to the pitch.
