FIFA is in rough weather and not without reason. – After this summer’s World Cup, there will be a massive clean-up that must lead to changes. – One thing that needs to be looked at is that Folarin Balogun does not have to serve his red card against Belgium. (The USA lost anyway for being a worse team), ridiculous peace prizes, treatment of Iran’s national team and probably also the match between Argentina and Egypt.

Egypt’s national team manager Hossam Hassan rages: “A rigged game, the whole world saw it”


Egypt were two goals up and on their way to the World Cup quarter-finals – but Argentina turned around and won 3-2. After the game, Egypt coach Hossam Hassan was furious and spared no criticism of the referees.

“I will say what I mean, regardless of the consequences. This was clearly a rigged game, and the whole world saw it. And I want to say one more thing: if they want Argentina to win so much, why did they call everyone to participate? he said.

“It’s all about money. They want Messi to stay in the tournament. In football, a lot of things happen off the pitch because of interests. What happened was unfair. Egypt deserved to qualify. We were the best team against Argentina.

“FIFA promotes ‘Fair Play’, but we didn’t see it on the pitch. Without these mistakes, the result would have been different. What happened was unfair – they cancelled a goal, I don’t know why. It’s all about marketing, they want Messi to stay. Things happen off the pitch. Argentina has support off the pitch for marketing reasons,” he concluded.
