France has received 8 penalties in their last 26 World Cup games
Argentina has received 8 penalties in their last 11 World Cup games
Yeah, there's no difference 😭😭
You had the “Caso Negreira” investigation involving payments made by Barcelona to the head of the referee committee of the Royal Spanish Football Federation. Over €7 million was paid to companies linked to Negreira” by Barcelona for 17 years.
Now the FBI are investigating the Argentine Football Association over an alleged $300 million fraud and money laundering scheme.
I know one Argentinian player that just happens to be a Barcelona legend. I’m noticing a trend here 😂👐🏾
🚨 Argentina receive a yellow for every 19.7 fouls, while the teams that faced Argentina in this World Cup received a yellow for every 5.4 fouls.
Meanwhile, France receive a yellow for every 12.3 fouls, while their rivals receive a yellow for every 22.5 fouls.
Bias aside, he was able to win the premier league & UCL 3x times in a row (two toughest competitions in football history), become football highest goal scorer and still win 5 Ballon D’ors in a system that highly favours your rival, that’s definitely a more impressive career
Spider-Man’s entrance in the final battle of Spider-Man 3 (2007) still gets the blood pumping. The score swells, he swings back into the fight without hesitation, and the entire climax suddenly feels like classic superhero cinema firing on all cylinders.
One thing this World Cup and the Argentina discourse has revealed is football fans think rigging means you put the ball in the back of the net for the team you’re being claimed to support.
There are various ways a referee can influence a game to favour a team in a tournament, and if you have referee friends that are willing to be truthful to you, they’ll attest to it.
Some instances are listed below:
•Giving 50/50 fouls to a team
•Not giving obvious yellow cards so the players can keep up their aggressiveness/tackles, or if it affects the team in the next round
•Interpreting the laws of the game in ways that can favour a particular team in different scenarios
•Ki!!ing the momentum of the opposing team
•Inconsistent penalty criteria for and against the team
These and many more we’ve seen go in the favour of the Argentina side in the last two world cups, and it doesn’t help that the FIFA president has publicly made statements that depicts a soft spot for the team getting these favors, including the leadership saying it would be an honor for Messi to win the World Cup in Qatar.
•The penalty against Poland (absurd).
•The Messi handball against Netherlands going unpunished.
•The Argentine player smashing the ball into the Netherlands bench not sent off
•Di Maria dived and got a pk, but Thuram got a yellow in the same match for same reason (Dybala and Di Maria laughed about the dive later on)
•Croatia and Netherlands felt cheated last time, Egypt feel so this time too (not a coincidence if we’re being truthful).
•Egypt being denied a VAR check for the McAllister pull, in the same game where a goal was canceled for same reason (they didn’t even show the replay intentionally), just bookings for the Egypt bench.
Many more in-game moments that can be pointed out too.
This is the world stage, not the NPFL, no referee will boldly make decisions that are blatantly biased all through the 90 mins, but there are a million other decisions that can determine the outcome of a game, and it’ll be unfair or untruthful to say we’ve not seen that happen for Argentina.
Everybody complaining can’t be Ronaldo fans, let’s stop gaslighting people.
Some of you are late to the party.
I decided who my GOAT is after this was allowed and his fans celebrated eitherway.
I knew i could not be part of any form of injustice.
Goal scoring, movement, pace, power, ball striking, shot variation, long range shots, heading and aerial superiority, weak foot, flair (skill moves, show boating)… CR7 is better than Messi at all of these. It’s not just “mentality” that we admire. He’s the greatest Footballer of all time.
Pessi fans have a pathological need to have the moral highground i think years of battling ronaldo fans has warped their minds into thinking they support a force of inherent good against evil like in a marvel movie. This is why they can't admit any instances of favouritism
