🗣🚨 The Netherlands vs Argentina referee Antonio Mateu Lahoz opens up after the 2022 world cup:
"At half time, I got a lot of calls from the higher authorities (didn't reveal names) at that moment, I had to choose between my career and following their orders"
"My lines man was complaining to me that Lionel Messi is to get a second yellow card but I told him, "my hands are tight"
🚨Javier Zanetti on Argentina’s penalty against Egypt:
🗣️ “For me, that is never a penalty.
I’ve watched it several times, and I still don’t understand what the defender is supposed to do differently. There is minimal contact, both players are competing for the ball, and the Egyptian defender doesn’t make a reckless challenge. Football is becoming very dangerous when incidents like that are enough to decide matches.
The referee has to understand the context. This is the World Cup, not a training session. Every little touch inside the box cannot become a penalty. If that’s the standard now, defenders may as well stop tackling altogether because every attacker will be looking for the slightest contact.
I know people will say, ‘There was contact.’ Of course there was. Football is a contact sport. The question isn’t whether there was contact—the question is whether the contact was enough to bring the player down unfairly. In my opinion, it wasn’t. The attacker was already looking for the decision before the challenge was even completed.
I feel for Egypt because they had worked incredibly hard to stay organised against one of the strongest teams in the tournament. To see all that effort threatened by a decision like this is frustrating. These are the moments that leave players and supporters wondering whether football is rewarding good defending or simply rewarding players who know how to sell a situation.
I don’t like seeing games of this magnitude decided by soft penalties. Let the football decide the match. Let quality decide the match. Don’t let a decision like that become the biggest talking point.”
عاااااااجل : أسطورة الكرة الإنجليزية آلان شيرار:
عندما يعود الحكم للـ VAR في هدف مصر ويُلغيه بسبب إعاقة في بداية اللعبة، ولا يعود للـ VAR في هدف فوز الأرجنتين رغم وجود إعاقتين في بداية اللعبة.. إذًا فنحن نشاهد "مسرحية" وليست مباراة كرة قدم.
إذا كان الفيفا يرغب في إهداء كأس العالم لميسي فليعطيه اللقب من الآن ويذهب لاعبو باقي المنتخبات إلى منازلهم 👏👏👏👏👏
🚨 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.”
