Ah so NOW we should stop using the screenshots and provide more context when people have been doing that with Argentina for the past 2 World Cups? How about no? We play by your rules.
This has nothing to do with the Argentine national team. Rather, it’s an investigation into the AFA senior officials who oversee domestic games.
They’ll do anything to make Messi look like the bad guy.
Imagine watching Messi bend your favorite player over for 15 years so you become a professional footballer to get revenge only for Messi to bend you over too 😭
The fact that there appears to be millions of people saying the Salah situation is a penalty makes me question if I live in some kind of parallel universe because there is absolutely no way I am seeing this stuff right now
Have seen 3 Argentina related “rigged” incidents hit 2-3M+ impressions, 100k+ likes, and literally all of them are lies. Never seen anything like it.
1) Paredes’ foul at the end of the game — clear dive with video proof. Referee was spot on.
2) Messi’s free kick — the referee had blown the whistle, again with clear video proof.
3) Tagliafico not needing to wait for 1 minute before re-entering — the rules clearly state if a player leaves the field of play to stop bleeding or change a blood-stained shirt, they can come back on immediately.
3 super minor actions that weren’t game defining whatsoever getting this much level of scrutiny is already crazy. But to make matters worse, ALL of them are lies. Said I couldn’t even fathom the online reaction if the Portugal game had happened to Argentina and this is why.
The idiocy and hatred these anti-Messi fans have is downright insanity.
Simeone and Mourinho historically played against Barcelona the same way Paraguay played France today and they get all the praise in the world for it every time lol
