They allowed this Messi's Tackle and canceled the same type of Tackle that led to one of the most beautiful disallowed goals in this world cup tournament against same Argentina😭
Peak corruption.

🚨🗣Toni Kroos on Argentina world cup:
"All I can say is that, football won today, they got the easiest path to the final"
"And they still got help from the Referees and some of the higher authorities too, I am sure 90% of the world was supporting Spain today and we all know why"

🚨🗣 Egypt's Coach Hossam Hassan after Argentina lost the world cup final:
"If you notice, they tried their best to rob Spain but it didn't just work, they canceled Nico Williams goals for a foul they wouldn't have canceled if it was Argentina"
"I am very happy Spain won because they were the better team and they won over corruption. Football won today"

🚨 Roy Keane on Nico Williams disallowed goal against Argentina:
“I’ve just seen the biggest robbery of this World Cup. The ball comes into the box, nobody touches anybody, everyone goes up for it, then one Argentina player starts shouting. The next thing you know, two defenders are on the floor appealing,
Nico Williams has scored, and Emiliano Martinez … who wasn’t even touched… is somehow lying there as well asking for a foul.
The referee blows immediately. No VAR review. No replay. No check to see if there was actually any contact. Just disallowed. Apparently if enough Argentina players fall over at the same time, that’s now considered conclusive evidence.
If we’re being honest, Paredes shouldn’t even still be on the pitch after some of the tackles he’s made today. Yet somehow the only thing the referee managed to spot instantly was an invisible foul.”

🗣️Luis Enrique : As coaches who have managed Lionel Messi in the past, Pep Guardiola, Ernesto Valverde, and I have decided to come together with other coaches who believe this World Cup has been overshadowed by controversy. Together, we intend to submit a petition to FIFA and its president, calling for greater transparency, accountability, and fairness in football.
For truth and equality to prevail in the game, someone must be willing to speak up. If we continue to remain silent whenever questions about fairness arise, football risks losing the integrity, credibility, and respect that have made it the world’s most beloved sport.
The Laws of the Game should apply equally to every player and every nation. Any foul, regardless of who commits it, should be judged solely on the rules not on reputation, status, or favoritism. Likewise, any referee found guilty of corruption or accepting bribes should face the strongest disciplinary measures, including being barred from officiating official competitions.
Football belongs to the fans, and the game should always be decided by merit, fairness, and the laws of the sport not by controversy.

Tadej Pogacar também deve estar farto de ouvir teorias da conspiração. Assim, perante um teste anti-doping de madrugada que o limitou a 4h de sono, resolveu dar uso à simpatia e não disparar críticas. Eminem, cafeína e siga para outra (dura) etapa do Tour

🚨Marc Cucurella on Lionel Messi:
🎙️Reporter: “Marc, are Spain afraid of facing Lionel Messi?”
🗣️Marc Cucurella: “Lionel Messi? No. We’re not scared of Messi—we’re scared of the referee.”
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Marc Cucurella did not say this. He stated Spain were "not scared" of facing Argentina and Messi. tntsports.co.uk/football/marc-…

🚨 INSTEAD of complaining about Afrikaners celebrating their culture, why not build your own?
If you're Tsonga, organize a Tsonga tournament. If you're Venda, host a Venda cultural festival. If you're Xhosa, strengthen Xhosa traditions.
Don't tear down what another community has built build something your own community can be proud of.
That's how we celebrate diversity, not by attacking it 🇿🇦🤝

🚨 FIFA DISGRACES AGAIN
France was denied Permission by FIFA to Wear Black Armbands in tribute to Didier Deschamps' mother who has recently passed away
Yet in the game against Switzerland, FIFA allowed Argentina to do exactly that for one of their Old Player🤯
🤝 Paid partnership
