Dying embers of the World Cup semifinal and it's coming down to Ezri Konsa crosses cause you left the most creative RB to ever play the sport at home. Life is beautifully poetic sometimes
After all said and done, the funniest moment in this 2026 World Cup is Ronaldo scoring 2 useless goals against Uzbekistan and saying “I’M BACK, I’M BACK”🤡🤡🤣🤣🤣
🚨 Roy Keane on Argentina vs. Egypt:
“Once is a mistake. Twice, maybe. But when it keeps happening, you have to start asking questions. An Argentina player appeared to slap an Egypt player, and the referee ignored it. There was a foul in the penalty area—at least go and review it.
That’s what VAR is there for. If you’re only reviewing incidents for one team, then what’s the point? It felt like Argentina started the game with an advantage before a ball was even kicked, and that’s the referee. That’s not how football should work.”
Egypt's disallowed goal was completely against how this tournament has been refereed.
You can't have a light touch where you don't give fouls for minimal contact and then rule out a goal through VAR for a very minimal hold of the shirt.

🗣️ Mohamed Alaa on Mohamed Salah’s reaction to the match:
Mohamed Salah came into the dressing room and brought all the players together and told them it’s bad luck and God wrote this for us, and that we will build on this and what’s coming is BETTER. ❤️
Mohamed Salah on the controversial officiating decisions in the Egypt vs Argentina game:
🗣️ “My heart is broken tonight. It felt like every 50–50 decision went against us, and that’s incredibly difficult to accept after giving everything on the pitch. We fought with courage, belief, and pride, but some of the officiating decisions left us frustrated and disappointed.”
“When players leave everything out there, they deserve consistency in the biggest moments. There were decisions that were hard to understand, and naturally people will debate them for a long time. In matches of this magnitude, every call can change the entire story.”
“This hurts because we believed we could achieve something historic. We accepted Argentina’s quality, but it’s painful when controversial decisions become part of the conversation after such an incredible effort from both teams. We all want the game to be decided by football.”
“I respect the game too much not to speak honestly. The referee and VAR have enormous responsibility because millions of people trust those decisions. Every nation deserves to feel the match is officiated fairly and consistently. Tonight is a difficult night for Egypt, but I will always be proud of my teammates and our supporters.”
🚨🗣️ 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Hossam Hassan (Egypt) with a RANT!
"It's all about money. They want Messi to stay in the tournament.
In football, many things happen off the pitch because of interests.
What happened was unfair.
Egypt deserved to qualify. We were the better team against Argentina."
Mustafa Ziko, attacks FIFA and the French referee:
The referee is unfair, a clear injustice .. he wasted the effort of an entire country
From the first minute, he's been refereeing against us .. the tournament is rigged.
I apologize to all the people of Egypt and the Arab nation .. it's not in our hands, the tournament is rigged and the referee wronged us
