Only a fool will watch Argentina vs Algeria, Austria, Cape Verde, Egypt, Switzerland and also see this and still say the world cup wasn't rigged for Argentina.
"If the world cup was rigged for Argentina, why didn't they win?"
Because no matter how much you try to rig a tournament, you as a player, you have to play your part.
You played 90 minutes of football with zero shot on or off target and played an extra 30 minutes with no shot on target making you the first team in the last 60 years without a single shot in 90 minutes of a world cup finals but wanted fifa to rig the game for you in broad daylight?
The agreement fifa had with Argentina is for them to at least play good football and give the opposition team a hard time so the referee can give their players a red card or a penalty for Argentina but when you're uprightly being dominated and humiliated by Spain for 120 minutes, how do you expect the referee to help you?
So you expect him to call a penalty against Spain when you couldn't even have the ball in their penalty box for the whole game? 😂
Unfortunately, Infantino can't do everything for Argentina. You have to play your part.
At the end of the day, heaven helps those who helps themselves.
The game might be brutal but it's still fair.
@Cristiano, que bela jornada você está tendo! Eu te admiro muito e isso não é segredo para ninguém. Parabéns por quebrar o meu recorde de gols em partidas oficiais. Deixo essa foto em sua homenagem, com muito carinho, como símbolo de uma amizade que já existe há muitos anos.
Argentina became the first team in World Cup history to go without a shot attempt in regulation 😳
Their first attempt came late in extra time. Keyne had more shots on target during the celebrations 😅
Congratulations to @Cristiano on winning this year's Ballon d'Or. I would love to have played on the same side as you! // Parabéns ao @Cristiano por conquistar o Ballon d'Or este ano. Eu adoraria ter tido a chance de jogar ao seu lado! #BallondOr
