🇦🇷 All 31 dirty tricks Argentina unleashed on England:
1' Mac Allister leaves one on Anderson
2' Paredes pushes Bellingham, leading to a confrontation
3' Enzo comes in late on Anderson
🚨🤯 NEW: Prior to the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Mexico had agreed to play a friendly against Argentina, who reportedly requested $6 million USD to play the match.
The deal ultimately collapsed after AFA officials allegedly asked the FMF to split the payment across three different bank accounts, raising red flags for the Mexican federation, which decided to walk away from the negotiations rather than become involved in what it considered a suspicious operation.
The controversy surrounding Argentina continues to grow. 🇦🇷💰

🚨Argentina football President has met FIFA President just before the Semi Final vs Eng
Just a Reminder that in the 2022 WC a Contract was signed just 9 days before the final awarding €42M of the €300M revenue Argentina recieved for Money Laundering
Is this a Repeat of 2022🤯
Yamal waited until he left Spain for the US to express how much he adores Ronaldo so Barca/Pessi fans won’t behead him.
Reminds me of this Boateng interview👇
¡¡SE DESTAPÓ LA OLLA!! 😳
El diario británico The Telegraph publicó un extenso análisis titulado: “Las teorías de conspiración que afirman que la FIFA está arreglando el Mundial para Argentina”.
No se trata de un hilo en redes sociales ni de un rumor viral. Es uno de los periódicos más importantes del Reino Unido considerando que el debate ha adquirido suficiente relevancia como para ser analizado.
Entre los puntos que recoge el artículo aparecen: la acción en la que Lionel Messi evitó una posible tarjeta roja ante Egipto, el bajo número de amonestaciones recibidas por Argentina, un grupo considerado por algunos como favorable en el sorteo, la designación de un equipo arbitral argentino para el Francia vs. Marruecos y unas declaraciones de Gianni Infantino en las que dijo que “sufrió con Argentina” durante el partido frente a Egipto.
Eso sí, The Telegraph no afirma que el Mundial esté manipulado. Lo que hace es recopilar y examinar las teorías y argumentos que han circulado durante el torneo, analizando por qué han generado tanto debate.
¡UNA LOCURA! 🤯
Infantino became FIFA President in Feb, 2016.
FIFA & CONMEBOL met with Messi in June, 2016.
Copa America was then organised again in 2016 just a yr after it was played in 2015.
4 Copa America organised in 6 years. He ultimately won. Since then it's played every 4 year again.
Claims the World Cup has been “fixed” in favour of Lionel Messi’s Argentina reached fever pitch following their controversial win over Egypt

Arbitrarily having a crucial goal ruled out against Lionel Messi?
Egypt fans, we know exactly how it feels. Bale’s ruled out goal in the April 2016 Clasico, at the time when Barcelona were paying the Spanish refereeing committee vice president Negreira.
The whole world is finally accepting what Ronaldo fans have been saying for years. Argentina are getting caught in 4K.
Argentina are the Israel of football.
“Cutie” Romero:
Premier League: 23 matches, 1.4 fouls per game, 9 yellow cards, 2 red cards.
For Argentina in this world cup: 1.5 fouls per game, 0 yellow cards, 0 red cards.
Same player. Higher foul rate. Yet one record is full of cards, while the other is completely clean. Not even a single yellow card.
Even players have reached the point where they don’t care about professionalism anymore.
Imagine getting the chance to represent your country on the biggest stage, giving everything with passion, only to end up losing because of one sided officiating...
🚨🗣️New: Mohamed Salah on the controversial officiating decisions in Egypt and Argentina game, Messi and Argentina are being favored:
“People will say Argentina showed the mentality of champions. Fine. But tell me this: when exactly did Egypt get the same protection from the officials?
We scored a second goal. The stadium exploded. The world saw it. Then suddenly VAR became an archaeologist, digging through the ruins of football history to find a foul from another lifetime.
Funny how they could rewind the game Five minutes to cancel our goal, but when I was brought down in the box, everyone suddenly forgot where the replay button was.
That’s what hurts. Not losing. Not Argentina.
The inconsistency.
One decision gets examined under a microscope. Another gets buried under the carpet.
We were told football is decided on the pitch. Tonight it felt like it was decided in a control room.
And let’s talk about those final minutes.
Two penalty appeals. Two moments that could have changed everything. Nothing. No review. No urgency. No explanation.
Then Argentina go down the other end and score the winner.
That isn’t a plot twist. That’s the kind of script that leaves millions of people asking questions.
Egypt fought for every blade of grass. We defended. We believed. We earned our moments.
But every time we climbed the mountain, someone moved the summit.
The disallowed goal.
The ignored penalty shouts.
The cards flying around our bench because people who dedicate their lives to this game couldn’t understand what they were witnessing.
And now we’re expected to smile and say football won?
No.
Football wins when the rules are applied equally.
Football wins when VAR is a shield for fairness, not a sword that appears only when convenient.
Because from where I’m standing, Egypt didn’t just lose 3-2.
Egypt lost a goal, lost two penalty appeals, lost faith in consistency, and eventually lost a place in the quarter-finals.
Maybe Argentina deserved to advance.
Maybe they didn’t.
That’s football.
But what will make people angry isn’t the result.
It’s the feeling that one team was forced to play against eleven men, the clock, and a set of decisions that seemed to change shape whenever the game demanded it.
And that’s why this match will be remembered long after the scoreline is forgotten.”
"We were wronged by the referee today, everyone saw that."
"After 2-0, everything went and worked against us."
Egypt’s Mostafa Ziko and Mohamed Alaa after defeat to Argentina at the World Cup 😮💨
🚨Full interview of Egypt's Coach Hossam Hassan at full-time:
"I will say what's on my mind regardless of the consequence, this was clearly a rigged match and the whole world saw it"
"And I want to say one more thing, if they want Argentina to win so bad, why call everyone to come and participate?"
🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨
ZICO: The referee was unfair .. The ruling is unjust, with clear and obvious oppression.
It wasted the effort of an entire country .. From the start of the match, he was against us.
A rigged match .. God is my reckoning, and He is the best defender.
We apologize to the Egyptian fans .. We didn't know how to do this ..
But by the referee's hand .. The championship is rigged ..
Congratulations to Argentina on the World Cup.”
💔😪
- Penalty awarded to Argentina.
- Molina should've been sent off.
- Salah was wrongly called for a foul when he was clean through on goal.
- Egypt goal disallowed
What Infantino pulled today will go down as one of the biggest scandals in World Cup history.
