🇩🇪🇦🇷🇪🇬 | Toni Kroos destruyó las conspiraciones de los fracasados que aseguran que Argentina le robó a Egipto en el Mundial:
"No entiendo por qué la gente siempre busca excusas después de un resultado como este. El fútbol se decide en 90 minutos, no por un solo momento. Egipto jugó una primera mitad excelente, pero, después de ponerse 2–0, perdió el control del partido y Argentina aprovechó. Eso es lo que hacen los equipos de élite.
"La gente sigue hablando del árbitro y del VAR, pero, si ves el partido de manera objetiva, la remontada de Argentina se construyó sobre su intensidad, calidad y mentalidad. Creyeron hasta el pitido final, mientras que Egipto no pudo mantener el mismo nivel que mostró al principio.
"No podés tirar por la borda una ventaja de dos goles contra uno de los mejores equipos del mundo y luego reducirlo todo a una sola decisión. El fútbol es mucho más complejo que eso.
"Siempre habrá debates sobre el arbitraje, y eso es normal. Pero decir que el partido fue 'robado' o que el torneo se está regalando a Argentina es injusto para todos los jugadores en el campo. Los jugadores deciden los partidos con sus actuaciones, no con teorías conspirativas.
"Lo difícil, después de una derrota, es aceptar que el rival fue mejor en los momentos decisivos. Argentina merece crédito por la forma en que respondió bajo presión, y Egipto debería estar orgulloso de su actuación mientras también aprende de los errores que le costaron caro. Eso es el fútbol".
🚨🗣️Sadio Mane’s Statement on Instagram:
What happened has gone too far. This is not the football we fight for, not the Africa we believe in.
There is too much corruption in our game, and it’s killing the passion of millions of fans across the continent. Players give everything on the pitch, but decisions off it are deciding matches and trophies.
I’m deeply disappointed not just for Senegal, but for African football as a whole. We deserve better. The fans deserve fairness, transparency, and respect.
Senegal are likely to argue that they did not abandon the game, the match was completed by the referee’s whistle.
They can say Article 82 was misapplied because the game continued under the same circumstances and reached its natural end.
The referee allowing Senegal back on the pitch and Morocco happily continuing the game will be used to state the match - and result - was valid.
As the final was completed, they can argue the integrity of the game was upheld.
They can also claim changing the winner of a completed final is an extreme overreach by the Appeal Board. And that the punishment for a delay - not a refusal to play as they finished the game - is excessive.
Bam scored 83 points last night.
And it still doesn’t belong in the same conversation as Kobe’s 81.
Here’s why.
1) Numbers without context are meaningless. Process determines value.
2) It IS impressive to score 83 points in a basketball game. You must take shots, and they must go in the basket.
HOW you get the points, however, also matters.
3) Bam’s 83 ≠ nor greater than Kobe’s 81.
Kobe, as Kobe told the story, got pissed off because his team was losing. He caught fire and was scoring against intentional defense.
Kobe’s points were a byproduct of competition.
Bam’s points were the objective.
4) Bam / MIA was chasing Kobe for this manufactured Stats Slop.
Stats Slop = numbers created for narrative value rather than competitive necessity.
5) When a player scores this many points he is “on fire”, taking— and making— more shots than usual.
This applies only to the first half for Bam’s feat. After halftime, he was chasing stats.
Also —
6) Dwayne Wade recently stated that there’s no “buzz“ in the City of Miami for the team.
He was right.
Buzz is created through having 1. A contending team and 2. Box-office level players.
Nothing about last night changes the reality that the Heat have neither.
Buzz is like being famous. If you have to *argue* that there’s buzz, there’s no buzz.
7) What happened last night reflects what’s happening in society, not just basketball.
Storylines and outcomes clearly & intentionally manufactured. Surface-level people paid to make it seem like it matters arguing that it should be respected *just because it happened,* while tell us to not trust our lying eyes and ignoring the process that led to it.
We increasingly reward appearances instead of processes.
This deposit is rejected.
Bottom Line: If you respect the process, you understand the difference.
If you only respect the number, you won’t.
