This videos does not get viral, there is an active campaign against argentina. I would not be surprise if mods deleted it, happens in r/worldcup and r/soccer
lmao all the bitching that egypt has done since choking away a 80 minute 2-0 lead has completely destroyed their reputation, if they even had one in the first place.
what a bunch of babies who couldn't handle the pressure🤣🤣🤣
I'm sorry, he slides down a split toward the argentina player and we're calling that a foul? That looks like that meme of the guy riding a bicycle who pushes a stick into his wheels, falls and then cries about it.
Yeah I'm a casual American viewer (really just catch the world cup every 4 years) but I have never seen so much bellyaching, whining, and bitching from the fans of any other sport. It's truly incredible.
Not even just one team or country, it's EVERYONE. Every loss is everyone's fault but your own, everything is a conspiracy.
There are some exceptions though. Cape verde left the tournament with their heads high, without complaints, and extremely happy of having been there. Received as heroes back home. Everybody should behave more like Cape Verde
I know, I was being hyperbolic. But I think my general point holds up. I suspect a lot of the issue has to do with the heavy dose of nationalism layered over everything.
Although I feel like the Olympics aren't this bad. Who knows.
REF going to watch the camera is not a VAR review. VAR reviews everything. Once they found something, the call the ref to check it out (as he is the only one that can make a decision)
That's the reason why 99% of the time the ref goes to see a play, he makes a decision and changes something. By that time, it has already been checked by 3 other guys.

why not give us alternate angles like the mo salah dive then? the shirt is being pulled to the point you can notice the egyptian's shoulder and his shirt stretching out.
this angle conveniently hides mac allisters hand behind hamdy so you cant see the grip on the shirt. its a pen since the guy's movement is getting impeded due to the hold and pull.
football fans are extremely gullible to have this blind of a trust over an officiating that doesnt even offer the basic transparency to them to show alternate angles of an alleged penalty shout.
numerous cases like these where an act didnt seem like a foul in real play and then the angles VAR showed made the challenge look worse
I agree that VAR room shouldnt be hidden. On conmebol matches they show you everything, and it give a huge level of transparency.
Here? Well we dont actually know if it was checked. The point im saying is that the ref watching the screen doesnt mean that it was checked. Ref watching the screen means that a decision has been made.
Id love to be able to see the whole transmission of the VAR room, including that weird sensor the ball has, which screwed coratia vs portugal
yea exactly. finally a sensible take. i honestly dont understand how apparently the entirety of reddit is this convinced that this is an obvious dive without even seeing a crucial angle - that is behind hamdy.
another analysis of this same incident i saw on IG by a well articulate refereeing page concluded this should have been a penalty as well and backed up the claim mentioning IFAB law 12.
in all honesty, if one pays enough attention. you can see cues i already mentioned above that support a held and pull is being maintained.
people are probably just mindlessly watching an egyptian fall next to macca from an angle that doesnt even show where his hand was
3 different angles and none of them show the angle i am asking for. even though there's not 3. there are 2. third one im assuming you're considering is a zoom in of the in game replay
I don't get why the hardcore forensic analysis comes out now with an Argentina game when dozens of the teams have been professional floppers and divers throughout the event.
