🚨🗣️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.”

🚨🎙️ Toni Kroos on the standard of officiating at the World Cup 🔴

"Every day it's the same conversation—poor officiating, controversial decisions, and one team feeling punished while another escapes for similar incidents. When that keeps happening, people naturally begin to question the credibility of the tournament.

Football is built on fairness. Fans can accept defeat, but it's much harder to accept inconsistency. If trust in the refereeing continues to disappear, the competition itself will lose the respect it has earned over generations.

No nation wants to feel like they're travelling across the world only to be treated unfairly. If teams and supporters start believing the outcome is already decided before a ball is kicked, then the spirit of competition is gone.

FIFA must protect the integrity of the game. The World Cup should always be remembered for great football—not endless debates about referees and controversial decisions."

If they continue like this I see many countries pulling out of next world cup, because they will feel there's no need of competing since they decide the winner before the game is even played, people are seriously losing interest on the tournament.

🚨🎙️| Zlatan Ibrahimović on Argentina eliminating Egypt from the World Cup:

🗣️“I’m a big fan of Messi, but let’s be real for once. This feels like pure robbery. Every controversial decision somehow goes Argentina’s way. FIFA keeps acting like they want Messi to lift every trophy possible. At this point, it’s becoming too obvious. Egypt deserved more from that game, but when the biggest football organization in the world has its favorite, what can you do?”

[Vfynn_🥷🏼 𐙚 @Vfynn_]

🚨🗣️New: Iker Casillas on the controversial officiating decisions in Egypt and Argentina game, Messi and Argentina are being favored:

“As a goalkeeper, I’ve always believed football should be decided by players, not by controversies that leave people talking about referees for days.

I watched Argentina against Egypt, and honestly, I understand why Egyptian fans are furious, what I don’t understand is the consistency.

Egypt scores a second goal. The ball is in the net. Then VAR starts digging deeper than an archaeological expedition. Suddenly we’re reviewing incidents from so far back in the move that it feels like the goal was disallowed by history itself.

Fine.

If that’s the standard, then apply that standard everywhere. Because when Egypt were screaming for penalties late in the game, where was that same energy? Where was that same determination to find the truth?

Where was that same microscopic attention to detail? That’s the question millions of people are asking. One moment receives a full criminal investigation. The other gets a missing-person report. And football fans notice these things.

People will say Argentina showed the mentality of champions. I agree,they fought until the end, they punished every mistake. But let’s stop pretending that the officiating didn’t become a major part of the story. The disallowed Egyptian goal changed the emotional temperature of the match.

Then came two penalty appeals, Two opportunities to prove consistency. Two opportunities to reassure everyone that the same rules applied to both teams.

Nothing.

No moment that convinced Egypt they had received equal treatment. Then Argentina score the winner. And that’s when the frustration exploded. The bench erupted, cards came out, Coaches lost control of their emotions. Not because Egypt were losing. Because they felt the game was slipping away through decisions they could not understand.

That’s the difference, Fans can accept defeat. What fans struggle to accept is uncertainty.

The feeling that one team’s actions are examined frame by frame while another team’s incidents are viewed at highway speed.

Football cannot survive on trust if supporters leave the stadium believing the standards changed depending on the shirt being worn.

Maybe Argentina still win if every decision goes Egypt’s way. Maybe they don’t. We’ll never know. And that’s exactly why the debate will never die.

Because Egypt didn’t leave this World Cup talking about tactics. They didn’t leave talking about missed chances.

They left talking about a disallowed goal, ignored penalty appeals, VAR consistency, bookings on the bench, and a feeling that every time they climbed the mountain, somebody moved the finish line.

Argentina advance. Egypt go home. But the biggest winner tonight wasn’t football.

It was controversy.

And whenever controversy becomes the star of the show, the sport has failed the people who love it.”

[Inside Reality Football @RealityLfc]

🚨Paul Scholes on Mo Salah and Egypt being eliminated by Argentina.

🗣️“This is the greatest robbery in football history I’ve ever witnessed, from the beginning of the game till the end there wasn’t any favorable decision for the Egyptian national team. You don’t have to bring in excuses for such controversial decisions in the end.”

“It’s sad and you can see how emotional and heartbreaking the fans look after the game, it’s not what we expected from the game today. A false penalty and many other decisions that isn’t meant to be taken, we just have to admit the fact that it was rigged and there’s nothing we can do about this.”

“It’s Lionel Messi and we all know why this happened today against the Egyptian team, this wasn’t how football is supposed to be played but they ruin everything with their favorite decisions.”

[MUFC Buzz™ 🔴 @MufcBuzzLive]

🚨 Thierry Henry on Argentina knocking Egypt out of the FIFA World Cup:

🗣️ “This one feels like outright daylight theft on the pitch.

I’m not questioning Argentina’s talent they’re stacked with elite players but they didn’t merit the victory tonight.

Egypt fought tooth and nail to establish that two-goal cushion. They showed real grit in defense, flair going forward, and fully deserved every bit of their advantage.

The game shifted because of the officiating, in my view. That early penalty for Argentina already looked questionable, and from then on, it seemed like every big call went against Egypt.

Those moments completely altered the flow and handed Argentina the lifeline they needed.

Egypt will be devastated leaving this competition. They came so close to pulling off what would have been one of their finest triumphs.

Football can be won through moments of genius or through disputed calls and right now, the refereeing decisions will be talked about just as much as the action on the field.”

🚨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.”

[Lemon @Lemonbryz]

🚨 🎙️Ronaldo Nazário on the controversial refereeing in Argentina vs Egypt;

Interviewer: Ronaldo, what did you make of that dramatic comeback by Argentina today?
Ronaldo Nazário: Look, Argentina are a very strong team with real champions’ mentality. To come back from 2-0 down like that shows quality and character — no doubt about it. But if we’re being honest, the refereeing had a big influence on how this game unfolded.

If it was a different team playing against Egypt today, ask yourself if those decisions could have been different. Be honest with yourself and that’s all you need to know.
Let’s go through them one by one. First, Egypt score on the counter — Zico finishes it brilliantly after Salah’s work. They celebrate, the momentum is with them, and then VAR steps in and disallows it for a so-called foul in the build-up. A soft little challenge on Martínez, nothing clear and obvious. In most games, that goal stands. Tonight it didn’t.

Then the penalty awarded to Argentina. Marginal contact at best. You see those incidents week in, week out and they’re waved away. Here it was given. Messi missed it, okay, but the decision itself shifted the psychological balance when Egypt were in control.

And it wasn’t just those two. Throughout the match, the consistency wasn’t there — fouls called one way, advantage not played at key moments, little things that add up. Egypt were fighting for something historic. They went 2-0 up with real quality and heart. With fair, consistent officiating, this match could easily have gone either way — and without all the controversy afterwards.
Argentina showed they can win ugly, but football deserves better. The big calls shouldn’t feel like they’re protecting one side. Respect to Egypt — they played a great game and pushed the champions all the way.

Interviewer: Strong words…
Ronaldo Nazário: I say what I see. That’s it.

[Goals Zone @TheGoalsZoneHQ]

🚨🗣️ Zlatan Ibrahimović: "I don't understand how Argentina always gets favoured by FIFA, they clearly disallowed a legal goal of Egypt and they gave Argentina 8 Penalties in the last 12 World Cup games, I don't understand why the other countries are letting it happen".

[Darren @MUFCDarren_]

🚨 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.”

EL PEDIDO DE EGIPTO A LA FIFA 🇪🇬

➡️ Hany Abo Rida, presidente de la federación egipcia, solicitó oficialmente la exclusión del equipo arbitral de Letexier por el resto del Mundial

🗣️ "Hemos exigido una investigación sobre algunos incidentes en los que se vieron jugadas que no se contabilizaron a favor de Egipto", declaró el dirigente ante la prensa

[Arturo Villegas @ArturoVill7]

🚨🇪🇬 Las declaraciones del futbolista egipcio Zico le están dando la vuelta al mundo. Por fin alguien se atreve a denunciar lo que muchos consideran un arbitraje escandaloso.

“El árbitro fue injusto, es una opresión clara y evidente. Desperdició el esfuerzo de todo un país; desde el inicio estuvo en nuestra contra.

Es un PARTIDO AMAÑADO. Dios es mi juez y mi mejor defensor.

Disculpas a todo el pueblo de Egipto. No supimos cómo hacerlo… pero por la mano del árbitro.

El campeonato está amañado. Felicitaciones a Argentina por otra Copa del Mundo.”

Ojalá las demás selecciones que han sido acuchilladas en partidos contra Argentina, también alcen la voz. El futbol necesita transparencia y credibilidad.
