Aquí nadie discute la calidad de Argentina, ni la grandeza de Messi, ni que sean campeones del mundo. Eso no está en discusión.

Lo que sí está en discusión es el arbitraje y el VAR.
A Egipto le anulan un gol retrocediendo varias acciones para encontrar una falta anterior. Perfecto: si ese es el criterio, entonces debe aplicarse para los dos equipos.

Pero antes del tercer gol argentino, Egipto reclama una falta en el área argentina. La jugada continúa y Argentina termina marcando. ¿Por qué allí el VAR no actúa con la misma rigurosidad?
Eso es lo que cuestiono: dos jugadas, dos criterios diferentes.
Y cuando estas cosas ocurren en un Mundial, inevitablemente aparecen las sospechas sobre la FIFA y sobre cuánto puede influir el VAR en el desarrollo del fútbol.

Argentina no necesita favores. Tiene fútbol, jugadores y calidad suficiente para ganar por sí misma.
Pero el fútbol se decide por detalles, y hoy los detalles arbitrales generan demasiadas preguntas.

Egipto hizo un partido extraordinario. Fue superior durante grandes momentos y obligó a Argentina a sufrir hasta el final.
Los goles argentinos pueden ser legítimos y bien ejecutados, pero eso no elimina la pregunta principal:

¿Por qué el VAR aplicó un criterio para Egipto y otro para Argentina? El fútbol necesita una sola vara para todos.
Porque cuando la tecnología deja de dar certezas y comienza a generar sospechas, el que pierde no es solamente Egipto. Pierde el fútbol.

@AlexiLalas MLS switches to relegation. 100s of club teams across the country. Club teams with youth academies to develop talent.

Literally the entire world does this already.. we don't need to reinvent the wheel here.

This was the most rigged game I’ve ever seen in my life. It should’ve been 3-3 minimum. Messi was given about 10 shots and missed nearly every single one of them, he sucked. Argentina sucked. The ref never called any penalties or corners for Egypt, even when they were clearly supposed to get them. They even took a whole goal away from Egypt.

Egypt was the better team. Argue with a fking wall if you disagree.

RIGGED.

Take it home, Morocco. 🇲🇦

It's so deflating and can't help but feel so defeated when you know there's nothing you can do against injustice and corruption. FIFA and Infantino can do whatever they want with no repercussions and it's just hard to watch countries and teams get screwed over

[Fanbrizio Rovaldo @FabrizioRomaxno]

🚨BREAKING: FIFA president Gianni Infantino’s reaction when Lionel Messi missed the penalty has raised concerns

The Egyptian press are convinced he is involved in corruption agreements with Argentina

[Ayesha @_syedaisha]

Nothing unites football fans like hating Argentina. It's beautiful.

[The Touchmine | 𝐓 @TouchmineX]

🚨𝗗𝗜𝗗 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗞𝗡𝗢𝗪: Argentina were awarded 20 Penalties since 2020 in all competitive International matches.

That's 20 Penalties in 27 Matches. 😳🇦🇷

[AB⚕ @AbsoluteBruno]

Argentina have had 8 pens in their last 12 games btw when are people going to wake up to the obvious

[The Touchmine | 𝐓 @TouchmineX]

🚨📸 | ALERT: VAR checked this, but didn’t check this. 🇦🇷💸

[Gavin McHugh @gavinmchughh]

Feel like FIFA just pulled some strings for Argentina

What other team are they reviewing and calling that shit back for

That is insane robbery

[Preeti @MadridPreeti]

LMAO THE REF DIDN'T EVEN WAIT FOR THE "FOUL" TO HAPPEN TO LEAVE THE VAR TV AREA

HE LEFT EVEN BEFORE THE APPARENT FOUL EVEN HAPPENED

WHAT IS THIS ROBBERY

Egypt is just another African team to have been really screwed by FIFA this World Cup. VAR always benefitting the "big" teams.

[Eric @Littleman1229]

VARgentina smh

[Melquisedec Torres @Melquisedec70]

Qué ridículo este Mundial. Le anulan el 2° gol a Egipto por una leve falta cometida a 70 metros y dos horas antes del gol.
¿El VAR revisa todas las 200 jugadas previas antes de un gol?
Por eso prefiero que gane Egipto; si le ganamos a Suiza, con Argentina tendremos a la FIFA en contra.

[Trunks @trunksRM7]

MIRAR COMO REACCIONA INFANTINO AL SEGUNDO DE EGIPTO JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA

[Eric @Littleman1229]

Heartbroken for Egypt. They had this game and VAR were completely against them.

[Eric @Littleman1229]

Of course Argentina comes back against Egypt 😭
