@SamaHoole I really don't know what you're complaining about. Why don't you look at the Chinese market? We eat all sorts of toxic and harmful substances and scraps every day, and what have we said?
You could say Argentina played better, but what I saw was more confidence. Knowing the referee would favor them, they simply attacked freely. Egypt, on the other hand, hesitated, going from a confident team to a disoriented one. Argentina also exposed their poor defense.
🚨🗣️ José Mourinho on the Repeated Argentina World Cup Controversies
"I look at what happened with the Folarin Balogun red card being magically suspended after politics got involved, and I look at how Egypt was completely robbed in the Round of 16 against them, and I just have to smile. All of this started in the very first week of the tournament when Lionel Messi was allowed to escape a clear red card against Algeria. When you set a precedent that the rules do not apply to certain teams, you lose all control. We are seeing it match after match. It is a recurring script."
"Some people are calling it a scandal, but a scandal is something unexpected. For me? This is just normal now. We witnessed the system protecting them throughout the group stages, we saw it against Cape Verde, and we saw it again when Mohamed Salah was denied a clear penalty while Cristian Romero stayed on the pitch after a horrific tackle. You can put the tournament in America, in Mexico, in Canada, it doesn't matter. The geographic location changes, but the hands pulling the strings stay exactly the same. It is a cinematic production."
"If you are a smaller nation playing in this World Cup, you have to accept that you start the match 1-0 down before a ball is even kicked. Egypt played beautiful football, they went 2-0 up, and they still couldn't win because you cannot defeat a referee who is determined to look the other way. When VAR can rewind the play from five minutes ago just to disallow an Egyptian goal, but refuses to check a blatant foul on Salah in the 93rd minute, the game is dead. The integrity is completely gone."
Dear Norway fans… you are, without question, the finest supporters this tournament has seen.
From a nation of just over five and a half million people, you travelled across oceans, filled stadiums, painted American streets red and white and turned every single game into a festival of noise, pride and pure joy.
28 years away from the World Cup stage and you returned not with entitlement, but with energy. Not just with noise, but with meaning.
The Viking Row didn’t just inspire your players. It inspired everyone. Opponents. Neutrals. The entire watching world.
The quarter finals. You deserve every single second of it. Keep going. Keep rowing. Norway, the world is behind you. 🇳🇴
