🚨🇪🇸 Aymeric Laporte: “In the last few matches we’ve seen things that have really surprised us, incidents that have been ignored. Especially with Argentina, who are a team that leave a lot of little messages with their challenges.
"That shouldn’t be allowed in competitions like this, because it can throw you off your game and make you lose your temper. It’s part of the referee’s job to keep these situations under control so that he doesn’t get walked all over.
"From the start of the tournament, we’ve been a pretty fair team in that respect. We’re not the kind of team that goes around kicking opponents or committing reckless fouls.
"And I think that’s how we need to approach this match as well. But it’s true that a lot will depend on the refereeing.”
الغريب ما شفت أحد يتكلم عن فاول الأمين على دوي، يبدو لي كان داخل المنطقة 🤔
هذاك خطأ ممكن اتفهم الاحتجاج عليه، لكن ضربة الجزاء!!
عموما بما أن الموضوع ما يخص ميسي و الأرجنتين مر مرور الكرام مثل ما الكثير من اللقطات عدّت بدون لجّة و تعديل صور AI.
We've seen so many versions of him it is unbelievable!

All different, all are the GOAT.
R9 won the Ballon d'Or in 2002 after spending almost the entire club season injured, because he won the World Cup and scored 8 goals in the tournament, and no one complained.
So if Messi wins this World Cup, I genuinely don't care where he plays at club level, whether it's MLS, Saudi Arabia, or even the second division.
A World Cup-winning Messi at this level with 8 goals and 3 assists and a match winning performance every single game, deserves his 9th Ballon d'Or purely for what he has done in this tournament.
And I don't want to hear anyone complaining about it.
