@lautarodeIcampo Ahora dilo si llorar, mundial es mundial. Argentina viene batallando con equipos más simples de lo que se enfrentó Francia. Además no me vengas a decir que el Argentina Jordania no parecía un amistoso.
🚨 Rio Ferdinand Sends Message to Referee During England vs Argentina Semi-Final
🗣️ Rio Ferdinand: “Just let the game be decided by the players.”
“England vs Argentina was always going to be emotional, intense and full of controversial moments, but my biggest concern right now is the officiating. I just hope the referee can keep things fair and consistent for both teams.
“We’ve seen Thomas Tuchel animated on the touchline from almost the first whistle. He’s been complaining about several decisions and clearly feels England haven’t received some of the calls they should have. Whether you agree with him or not, it’s obvious the officiating has become a talking point already.
“This is a World Cup semi-final, not an ordinary match. The players have worked for years to get here. The last thing anyone wants is for the headlines tomorrow to be about the referee rather than the football.
“Argentina have had their moments, England have had theirs, and the game has been played at a tremendous intensity. That’s exactly why the referee needs to stay calm, stay focused and apply the same standard to both sides.
“I don’t want England fans talking about decisions. I don’t want Argentina fans talking about decisions. I want people talking about great football, great players and a great semi-final.
“At this level, one mistake, one soft foul or one missed incident can change the course of a World Cup. My message is simple: let the game be fair, let the players decide the outcome, and make sure the best team reaches the final because of what they did on the pitch—not because of a refereeing controversy.”
