Everytime they play it’s something man 😂

So if that is not a goal why is Ronaldo not given penalty off corner in Spain game? He was mugged.

[prags @OfficialPrags]

This reminds me of something. I think they will be looking for one thing but find things a whole lot darker.

More than 70 European lawmakers are calling for an investigation into FIFA and Gianni Infantino regarding potential breaches of political neutrality 👀

"I'm ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED... If Egypt scored the winner but Messi got fouled, it WOULD go to VAR!" 🇦🇷 😱

Do you think Egypt were robbed yesterday? 👇️

It is incredible yet no longer shocking to the some of us. For years it was all conspiracy from “haters” but now the public eye is finally catching on.

And yes, Alvarez probably won the ball fairly in the initial sequence but after that initial tackle, as Salah goes back for the ball you can see what happens in the image below. Both soft but both “fouls”. I probably would have let both goals stand as this is not what VAR is meant for. But you absolutely cannot give one and not the other. If you set a precedent you have to stick with it especially if it is the same match and referee. The annoyance that many have is that this is not the first instance of this. This happens almost every time Argentina plays at this point. Always poor decisions. Always feels that the refereeing is one-sided. Always a VAR review for one decision, yet it conveniently vanishes when needed for another. ALWAYS DRAMATICS. I understand that football is not perfect. Subjectivity and poor decisions are ok from time to time, but when subjectivity and poor decisions become a common theme, something wrong is obviously happening. Saying “That’s just football” no longer is applicable. How can the same ref in the same match decide completely differently in one instance to another. If we are going to be so harsh on Egypt, why not be so harsh on Argentina. If Salah was fouled outside of the penalty box would it have been overturned? If it was within the penalty box but wasn’t with five minutes left to give Egypt the win would it have been overturned? A foul is supposed to be a foul. If the ref deems something a foul in a game then this MUST remain constant.

Anyways, Fifa is loving this. They get to pick their winner and get even more publicity from it given the methods used to provide their team a win. They know nobody can do anything real about the corruption anyways so it doesn’t matter to them. FIFA is fine with the complaints from nobodies like me speaking on their blatant corruption. If anything they want it. It’s more attention. As long as they are paying the right talking (or more importantly, not talk) about what really has transpired after the game, they are happy. It really is unfortunate because when you listen to Thierry Henry (who conveniently never discusses the poor decisions) talk about the brilliance of Messi post match, everything inside you wants to agree, but it is overshadowed by the sour taste in your mouth from the robbery you have just witnessed. It is that same exact feeling time and time again after every time FIFA’s team plays and it is majorly unfortunate.

What does it matter to them anyways. We who watched the corruption will die off at some point. History is written by the victors. People will see in the history books and museums that Argentina beat Egypt in a thriller 100 years from now, yet they won’t have us to show them how it really happened.

The president of FIFA is celebrating in our faces when Argentina wins and some people still don’t want to ask questions. At the very least I’d hope people can admit he is massively unprofessional if they are not willing to admit Infantino his other rats are running one of the most important organizations of this century into the dirt through blatant corruption. It has been evident these past few tournaments that the beautiful game has become a mocking game.

Foul. No Foul.

[Salah Updates @SalahUpdates]

🎥 The referee ignored Hamdi Fathy’s torn shirt, which was ripped by the Argentine player, and didn't care about the player's request to go to VAR. Instead, he showed yellow cards to most of the players because they were demanding justice from the referee.

[Haza🌟 @HazaBlanco]

I can't believe what I'm seeing and it was the 2022 WC final.

Di Maria was given a way softer penalty after he tripped himself.

🚨Argentina have reached the last 8 at the World Cup without beating a team ranked better than 23rd in the World:

🇩🇿Algeria (29th)
🇦🇹Austria (23rd)
🇯🇴Jordan (73rd)
🇨🇻Cabo Verde (64th)
🇪🇬Egypt (24th)

Fizeram um compilado de 4 minutos mostrando os lances em que a Argentina foi favorecida contra o Egito.

Simplesmente um escândalo mundial. Quanta sujeira envolvida. 🤢

Argentina robbing Egypt.

Uploading this again because FIFA removed the video.

🚨Un vídeo de MÁS de 4 minutos de robos de Argentina solo HOY contra Egipto.

El mayor escándalo de la historia del fútbol.

[prags @OfficialPrags]

Colombia had a very strong tournament but it could’ve been even better. They couldn’t figure out Switzerland today. You have to feel for them.

[prags @OfficialPrags]

Pretty shocking stuff considering all the drama surrounding them already. Switzerland should be their first real test.

[Underdog @Underdog]

The average current FIFA World Ranking of Argentina's opponents thus far is 47.3

Of all 48 nations in the tournament, they have had the "easiest" schedule (Switzerland next at 44.8)

I am genuinely tired of being told to ignore what my own eyes are seeing.

Watch both footages and tell me in the face which deserved a RED CARD the most!!

Just days ago in the Argentina vs Algeria game, Messi caught an Algerian player from behind so badly with a brutal tackle. No foul, no booking and not even a second glance from the referee as he waved play to continue.

Then fast forward to today, a very similar scenario, except there was very small to almost no contact between the Qatar player and the Canada player who got fouled as he made for goal just before the box as shown in the second footage attached

Here the referee instantly stops play and shows the Qatar player a yellow card right away which after a VAR review is even upgraded to a straight red card.

FIFA are shamelessly rigging this World Cup again for Argentina to win in broad American daylight!!

[Haza🌟 @HazaBlanco]

NO ONE CAN DENY THE SCANDAL.

The Austrian player was fouled in this goal which Argentina scored and there was no VAR review.

Today, Egypt's goal got disallowed because of a foul which happened before the goal.

You can't justify this corruption.

[Troll Barcelona @Trollbarcelona_]

🚨Lautaro Martinez elbowed Conrad Laimer in the back of his head and kicked his legs, but the referee gave a yellow card to Laimer instead.

The World Cup is already rigged for Messi and Argentina 😭
