@BSchweinsteiger Yesterday was the last match I’d watch for this WC, we know all remaining matches are aimed at crowing one squad. Nothing left to watch
They just copyrighted the 4 minute compilation of Argentina’s robberies against Egypt for the 5th fucking time. Every tweet was hitting 100k likes. FIFA really doesn’t want anyone seeing that clip a second time. No player in football history has ever been protected like Messi 😭
🚨 Vozinha: "I saw the match against Egypt. They were victims too, just like us. The referees seem to have one set of rules for Argentina and another for everyone else. If Argentina commits a foul, play goes on. If their opponents do the same, it's a penalty or a yellow card".
🚨 BREAKING: France’s appeal to rescind Michael Olise’s yellow card against Paraguay has been rejected by FIFA.
He will be SUSPENDED for a potential semifinal if he's booked against Morocco.
Le carton jaune de Michael Olise n'est pas annulé ?
Quelle crédibilité a désormais la FIFA, qui annule un rouge logique de Balogun et qui n'annule pas un carton jaune imaginaire d'Olise ?
🚨Fabio Capello on the officiating in Argentina vs Egypt:
🗣️ “I have no problem accepting defeat when the better team wins.
What I cannot accept is inconsistency.
Egypt scored a goal that looked perfectly legitimate, yet VAR searched every possible angle until it found a reason to rule it out. Later, when Egypt were asking for major decisions inside Argentina’s penalty area, that same level of investigation disappeared. That is what frustrates players, coaches and supporters.
Football is built on trust. If one incident deserves three minutes of review, then every major incident deserves the same attention. You cannot apply one standard to one team and a different standard to another. That is where people begin to question the integrity of the decisions.
Argentina have world-class players. Nobody doubts that. Messi, Martínez and the rest have enough quality to win matches on their own. But when controversial decisions repeatedly fall in one direction, it becomes impossible to ignore the conversation. Egypt earned the right to lose because Argentina were better—not because the biggest moments seemed to be interpreted differently.
The saddest part is that tonight people will remember the referee more than the football. Egypt leave with disappointment, but also with unanswered questions. And whenever supporters spend more time discussing officiating than the players, football itself has failed.”
I have a theory, France gets robbed against Morocco because all the referees are from Argentina, they won’t let Spain reach the final either, clearing the path for Messi. Jude also gets a yellow, so even if England reach the semifinal, he’ll be on the bench. Argentina then gets Switzerland, followed by Norway or an England side without Jude, while avoiding France and Spain in the final.
It’s basically over. Messi wins his 2nd rigged World Cup.
If Argentina beat Switzerland, they’ll become the first team in World Cup HISTORY to reach the semi finals without facing a single top 10 ranked nation.
Just another coincidence, of course...
>18 minutos do primeiro tempo, gol de Haaland contra a Argentina na semifinal da copa do mundo
>Messi pede VAR e o juiz aceita
>VAR começa a voltar no jogo, não encontra nenhuma falta de Haaland
> VAR continua voltando no tempo, assistimos o nascimento do primeiro filho de Haaland, o primeiro beijo em sua esposa, seu primeiro chute em uma bola, seus primeiros passos, a primeira vez que olhou nos olhos de sua mãe, seu primeiro choro… Nada de errado
> VAR volta ainda mais no tempo, vasculha a vida do pai de Haaland, da sua mãe, dos seus avós, bisavós, tataravós…

Na pequena aldeia de Skarvik, em um fiorde da costa da atual Noruega, vivia Eirik,Haaland o Lobo do Mar, um guerreiro experiente e capitão de um navio chamado Serpente Cinzenta. Sua aldeia enfrentava um inverno rigoroso, e os estoques de alimento e prata eram escassos.
Em uma manhã envolta por neblina, Eirik reuniu cerca de quarenta guerreiros. Com escudos de madeira pintados em vermelho e preto, machados afiados e lanças, embarcaram rumo ao oeste, atravessando o Mar do Norte.
Dias depois, avistaram uma pequena ilha com um grande mosteiro de pedra: Lindisfarne. Do alto dos mastros, um dos homens apontou para os telhados e disse:
- "Há riqueza ali."
Os monges não esperavam um ataque. Enquanto alguns copiavam manuscritos e outros rezavam, os navios vikings tocaram a praia. Os guerreiros desembarcaram rapidamente e avançaram pelo terreno.
Os sinos do mosteiro começaram a tocar, mas já era tarde. As portas foram arrombadas. Objetos de ouro e prata usados nas cerimônias religiosas foram recolhidos, baús foram abertos e alimentos estocados para o inverno foram levados. Alguns monges fugiram pelos campos; outros foram capturados.
Após poucas horas, Eirik ordenou a retirada. Os navios voltaram ao mar carregando provisões, metais preciosos e outros bens de valor. A fumaça do saque podia ser vista à distância enquanto a frota desaparecia no horizonte.
Quando os sobreviventes retornaram ao mosteiro, encontraram o lugar devastado. A notícia do ataque espalhou-se pelos reinos cristãos, tornando-se um dos episódios que marcariam o início da chamada Era Viking.
> Gol de Haaland anulado. Pênalti para Messi
🚨 José Mourinho on Argentina vs. Egypt:
“This is daylight robbery. It’s a shame what football is becoming. How do you let the play continue, allow the goal to be scored, and only then decide to go back and cancel it? If there was a foul, stop the game immediately. Don’t wait until after the goal.
Then I ask another question—why wasn’t Argentina’s first goal reviewed with the same attention when it looked very close to offside? Why was every incident involving Argentina checked, while Egypt didn’t seem to get the same treatment?
VAR is supposed to bring fairness, not confusion. Today, it looked like every important decision went in Argentina’s favour. Football deserves better.”
🚨🇪🇬 Hossam Hassan (Egypt Coach)
”It feels like marketing.. they want Messi to stay in the tournament.
Today there was marketing support, or whatever you want to call it.
It goes beyond the result. There was no respect and no fair play.
Gianni Infantino is ruining this beautiful sport.” 😳
