Plus I wonder what it means for the results of their matches..(or at least the one vs Argentina) 

 

Means nothing unless 3 or more players from the same team test positive from the same match. You don't lose points for just one player.

Right, I had forgotten that. They should do something about that rule, one goal for the opposite side for every positive player or something

Not quite. It's 3 or more players in the same "competition period"

So, what, you can play with 2 doped players for free.

 

Oh wait, "competition period" explains it.

Journalists of the Russian TV channel Match published the interview with 2 sportsmen and 1 manager who confessed that they took Rodchenkov drug cocktail. Their real names were changed:

The manager was ordering this cocktail and paid 100$ per bottle. There were really big amounts meaning the state funding. + he said that it was ordered for elite sportsmen. He also named the main producer. The man who was arrested was just a middleman/dealer.

Ukrainian canoeist Igor Trunov has been banned for four years following a positive drug test earlier this year.

The 25-year-old returned the test during an in-competition test at the first ICF Canoe Sprint World Cup event in Montemor-o-Velho, Portugal, in May.

International Olympic Committee (IOC) Disciplinary Committee proceedings have been dropped against Sochi 2014 figure skating champion Adelina Sotnikova today.

Four cross-country skiers - including three-time Olympic silver medallist Maxim Vylegzhanin as well as Alexey Petukhov, Julia Ivanova and Evgenia Shapovalova - have been disqualified and stripped of medals, however.

Sotnikova, who was 17 when she won in Sochi, was named in an evidence disclosure package published alongside the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA)-commissioned McLaren Report as one athlete about whom scratches indicative of tampering were found on test tubes in which urine samples were submitted.
