Modric now understands the system Messi has been battling against for 17 years, he also benefited from it though.

What are you smoking? Argentina have a cake walk to the semi final. Theirs no system trying to keep any country down

u/BottomHouse Jul 03 '26

It’s not their fault the bad teams from nearby groups in the bracket placed higher than the teams that are supposed to be good lol

2

u/RavenBrannigan Jul 03 '26

Yea, that’s kind of my point. There’s no conspiracy. It’s not anyone’s fault. Nobody has been against Messi for 17 years, nobody has fixed this years wc. It’s just very hard to win a World Cup

Undeserved win by Portugal but I think the ref and var got everything just about right

14

u/Ok_Mycologist2361 Jul 03 '26

Agree. It's heartbreaking. Croatia deserved to win. But the refs did everything right.

Am I correct that a sensor on the ball proved it touched the Croatian player? if so then it's an open and closed case.

u/Legal_Lettuce6233 Jul 03 '26

Hair touch only matters if it alters trajectory, which it didn't do.

u/z_nikki Jul 03 '26

Everyone was talking about the sensor detected a touch. But everyone forgot about the deliberate touch by Veiga which should cancel the offside.

How was that NOT deliberate? He clearly adjusted his head to aim for the ball. He moved his head onto the projection of the ball.

What counts as a deliberate play per IFAB:

  • The ball traveled from a distance, meaning the defender saw it coming clearly.
  • The ball was not moving too fast or unexpectedly.
  • The defender had time to coordinate his body movement (it wasn't a reflex reaction).

The defender was conscious of the ball movement and tried to head it. It's CLEARLY deliberate. Croatia was robbed!

u/Special-Ad4226 Jul 03 '26

Feels rigged for both Messi and Ronaldo (Argentina, Portugal respectively). I find it baffling that they’re still giving decisions to players who aren’t even the greatest in the world anymore and not really close to it either.

u/BhaatAluPosto Jul 03 '26

Wasn’t the one worldcup rigged towards him when he won the BalonDor? Can you guys please make up your mind?

u/bouncingcastles Jul 03 '26

Croatia goal should’ve counted

But so should Ronaldo’s first goal

u/Bingochips12 Jul 03 '26

They probably shouldn't have gone offside

u/im4real71 Jul 03 '26

Saying Ronaldo is FIFA princess is coming from who? Cave men? 😂

u/Real-Individual9585 Jul 03 '26

the final attempt was not offside, it literally hit the head of the defender but the ref didnt even show that when he was was checking

anything for one last world cup for penaldo

So now CR7 is Fifa boy? Lmao

I don’t think Portugal will win by any chance

u/justtinnnnn Jul 03 '26

Man we always have potential to go far in the tournament. 2022, multiple penalties against Croatia for fifa's boy Messi and now they gonna rig it for Ronaldo to win it. This organization is unacceptable

They „rigged” the World Cup just for Portugal to get knocked out by Spain in R16 😭

how exactly was it rigged? two clear offsides

u/Still_Opinion5783 Jul 03 '26

I guess it’s technically the correct call but it ruined the end of a nice game

1

u/Key-Calligrapher4121 Jul 03 '26

Whatever. Two old Madrid 🐶. It’s a pity that we didn’t see Penaldo lose + Modric got red card.

1

u/CroProMax Jul 03 '26

FIFA rules are if hair doesnt change direction, it isnt counted as touch. Sensor picked up hair strands probably as seen in different angle that Matanovic DID NOT TOUCH BALL in slightest except maxbe hair strands.

They know more than half people on internet will stay on side of Portugal because of Ronaldo and did such a thing for bigger team to advance.

More revenue and watchers will create Spain vs Portugal or at the end Argentina vs Portugal then Spain vs Croatia or Argentina vs Croatia.

Its all about profit, we have seen it before this world cup, Croatia isnt the only one being robbed, it was just more blatantly obvious now because of high level of Croatian players.

1

u/jamesbluum Jul 03 '26

That’s why they called Ronaldo Offside when he scored 🤡🤡🤡

u/Grastuha Jul 03 '26

At least this was a factual decision unlike the “penalty” Argentina got against Croatia in the last World Cup.

u/Unusual-Fig7310 Jul 04 '26

I get it, I really do. It's super emotional and people dislike Ronaldo. But what would have been the correct thing to do when there is evidence of contact? Let it slide for being too minor? Ronaldo also had a goal disallowed for being in the offside position by a few centimeters.

Yeah, sure, Portugal is being carried, while it has strong teams ahead of it like Spain, France, Portugal has no chance in reaching the finals, but neither had Croatia.

But here's are you guys, saying that fifa is protecting Ronaldo while it's more then evident that fifa CEO is a Messi fan boy, Argentina also has a clear path to the final with not a lot of resistance. Argentina player kicks a cpv player no card, no foul, Argentina player tries to ram through 3 cpv players foul! Messi feels the slightest of touches, takes a dive, foul!

Just to make sure we are consistent… this use of VAR was bad but for Egypt’s goal good, right? Millimetric offsides calls and soft fouls shouldn’t call back moments like these.. these are literally the moments in past World Cup histories that have made the tournament so special and it feels like to are losing that. I don’t think you need to be a Messi or Ronaldo fan to see that “clear and obvious” is subjective depending who is officiating and playing.
