@Rashtriyainsan@patrickbetdavid Did you not watch the game. England changed tactics and Argentina kept pressing from the very beginning!!! It was bound to happen a few goals. Ffs 🤦♂️
You’re misstating the outcome: correcting the identity does allow the referee to withdraw the wrong card and issue the proper one to the real offender (yellow for simulation to Embolo).
The correction was valid under the rules. It’s one of the updates designed to fix obvious errors like this without opening the floodgates to endless reviews.
Rules:

🇦🇷🇪🇬 Everyone wanted to scream that Argentina vs Egypt was rigged.
Then the replay made it annoying.
Egypt’s first controversy came when the refs missed a foul, Egypt went coast to coast, scored, and appeared to go up 2-0.
But VAR stepped in, reviewed the buildup, and ruled no goal.
As much as people wanted to lose their minds, the foul was there.
And under VAR, if an offense leads into the buildup of a goal, exactly what happened on that play, they can review it and take the goal away.
Then came the extra detail nobody wants to hear:
The Egyptian player also appeared to remove his shirt, which is supposed to be a yellow card.
Fast-forward to the 97th minute.
Salah goes down for Egypt, Argentina go coast to coast, score, and take the lead.
But when the play is slowed down, the defender touches the ball first.
It becomes a loose ball, then the player gets tripped up.
So yes, everyone wanted the “rigged” version.
The problem is the refs may have actually gotten both calls right.

🚨 🗣️ Mohamed Salah refuses to blame the referee after Egypt’s exit.
🗣️ “It’s difficult to accept because we were leading 2-0. We believed we had the game under control.
🗣️ I’ve seen the reactions after the match, but people need to understand emotions take over. Ziko never meant to disrespect Messi or FIFA. He was simply hurting after the final whistle.
🗣️ Personally, I don’t think Egypt were robbed. The referee made decisions like every referee does, but I don’t believe the result was decided by officiating.
🗣️ I’m proud of this team. We fought together until the end and that’s all you can ask for.
🗣️ Congratulations to Messi and Argentina. I hope they go all the way.
