@nyannthierry The response of the FIFA Referees Committee is rather absurd and useless. Even the layman in football knows that Argentina and Messi benefited from bias officiating. It started with Argentina Vrs Algeria. In the 2022 World Cup Messi had similar favour against Netherlands

People only see one incident but this was also 1000000% a red card, he intentionally leaned and elbowed the Algerian player in the face and the referee and VAR ignored.
They should've played with 9 men but FIFA would never allow that to happen.
🚨 “FIFA Aren’t Beating the Allegations” Neville on Messi Incident:
🗣️"I thought Messi was fortunate there. For me, that challenge was worthy of a red card, and I was genuinely surprised he didn't even receive a booking. It's moments like this that fuel the perception that FIFA treats Messi differently. If that had been Cristiano Ronaldo making the same foul, I think the officials would've had no hesitation in sending him off. Whether that's fair or not, those are the allegations people will keep talking about."
Embarrassing moment involving Argentina, FIFA and Messi again 😳🇦🇷
19 successful games were played with no VAR controversy until FIFA’s favourite team played.
Last night saw one of the clearest red cards any football fan will witness, but the problem was the player involved was Messi.
There was a very quick review of the incident and nothing was said about it because they were scared Messi would miss the remaining two games and that would possibly cost them revenue. 👀
After the last rigged World Cup with many undeserved penalties awarded to Argentina, FIFA are trying to make another World Cup full of controversy again.
That challenge could have broken his ankle or caused a serious calf injury, but nothing was done.
Algeria robbed!!!
🚨🎙️ Roy Keane on Messi’s career ending tackle overlooked by VAR and the referee ;
🗣️”After the match yesterday all you see is Messi’s praises everywhere, the hype, the headlines, the hat-trick talk. Yeah, maybe he deserves some of it — the lad can still play.
But no one wants to say the truth. No one wants to address what went wrong yesterday.
That challenge was an absolute disgrace. Late, studs up, straight into the Achilles — career-ending territory. On any other player, anywhere else, it’s a straight red card and you’re marching off before half-time. But not when it’s Messi.
The referee bottles it, VAR takes a quick look and says ‘nah, carry on lad.’ Give me a break!
This is the World Cup, the biggest stage in the game. This is where the rules are supposed to mean something. Not bent, not softened, not ignored because of the name on the back of the jersey. Players have been sent off for half as much in this tournament. Where’s the consistency? Do the laws of the game suddenly not apply when it’s Lionel Messi?
This is why the game’s gone soft. Big names get protected, the rest get crucified. Absolute joke of officiating on the greatest stage of all.”
Brilliant performance by Messi last night - but he should have been sent off for this outrageous studs-up foul on Algeria’s Mandi. The fact he didn’t even get booked is ridiculous - could have broken the guy’s leg.
The NDC started the Afari hospital, you were in power for 8years, you did nothing about it. You want to criticise someone who has been in office for just 15 months.

@AliceTalksFooty Recruitment was right but Amorim failed terribly, so it's not only about right player recruitment but right coach recruitment too. Amorim failed and if United had sacked him much earlier, we would've had the chance of competing closely for the league title
