🚨🗣️ José Mourinho on the Repeated Argentina World Cup Controversies

"I look at what happened with the Folarin Balogun red card being magically suspended after politics got involved, and I look at how Egypt was completely robbed in the Round of 16 against them, and I just have to smile. All of this started in the very first week of the tournament when Lionel Messi was allowed to escape a clear red card against Algeria. When you set a precedent that the rules do not apply to certain teams, you lose all control. We are seeing it match after match. It is a recurring script."

"Some people are calling it a scandal, but a scandal is something unexpected. For me? This is just normal now. We witnessed the system protecting them throughout the group stages, we saw it against Cape Verde, and we saw it again when Mohamed Salah was denied a clear penalty while Cristian Romero stayed on the pitch after a horrific tackle. You can put the tournament in America, in Mexico, in Canada, it doesn't matter. The geographic location changes, but the hands pulling the strings stay exactly the same. It is a cinematic production."

"If you are a smaller nation playing in this World Cup, you have to accept that you start the match 1-0 down before a ball is even kicked. Egypt played beautiful football, they went 2-0 up, and they still couldn't win because you cannot defeat a referee who is determined to look the other way. When VAR can rewind the play from five minutes ago just to disallow an Egyptian goal, but refuses to check a blatant foul on Salah in the 93rd minute, the game is dead. The integrity is completely gone."

Trump made the call. FIFA bent the rule. Balogun came back.

And Belgium still sent the hosts home 4-1.

The United States had the home crowd, the flag, the hype, the phone call, and the second chance. Belgium had the pressure, the finish, the Red Devils, and the waffles hot enough to cook the whole back line.

You can bend the rule, but you cannot bend the game.

Cheated and defeated.

Bye bye bye.

Sacred Defense.

@CityofCT I have logged 4 C3’s thus far to remedy a low water pressure issue since the 13Jan in Maitland that affects an entire block. The C3’s get closed with no action being taken and no improvement in water pressure. Closing the log improves your stats but not the service!

The British police charged a vicar under the Terrorism Act for holding a sign and opposing genocide. He now faces up to 14 years in prison.

@YvetteCooperMP -- responsible for this disgusting decision -- is now responsible for Britain's Gaza policy.

@CityofCT @geordinhl Good morning. Cable theft left an entire Maitland block without power since 1am this morning. No amount of calls or C3’s can get the city to fix the cables and restore power. Not Pinelands Not Rondebosch so not important 😡

@McDonalds_SA Read my tweet - then respond!

[ashraffcassiem @ash_ie]

@McDonalds_SA Your website link for complaints hasn’t worked in days. The Maitland store telephone number doesn’t work. Your 0860 number has been discontinued. You are making it very difficult to feedback and complain about the poor service at your branches.

[ashraffcassiem @ash_ie]

@McDonalds_SA Did you not read my tweet? Not only did your staff get my order wrong again, when I try to complain on your website the link doesn’t work. The McDonalds Maitland store phone number doesn’t work. You don’t have a central call centre line to complain to either.
