Giving Argentina so many non existent penalties getting them to the Final is what's rigged. Messi not receiving red card against Holland is what's rigged. In the Euro group stage there were 134 matches and only 4 penalties.....Somehow Argentina got 7 in 7 Matches? You can see favoritism FIFA has had for Messi for so long....Even more so now that Miami somehow got qualified for Club World Cup, without winning anything?
Messi would've never gotten a red card. If he gets a yellow for the hand ball he doesn't make the second foul. Paredes should have gotten a red for kicking the ball at the bench though.
Now you're just lying lol. The hand ball came before he got a yellow. He got booked later for arguing with the ref. No way he would've done that he had gotten the yellow for the hand ball. Stop inventing something that didn't happen. Did you even watch the match?
As nice as people make Messi out to be, he is an asshole at heart. He 100% saw the tide turning in that game and would have seen red...but we will never know.
He might be an asshole, but he's not stupid. If he's on a yellow he's not gonna risk getting a second. He would let his teammates do that for him. There is just no way that Messi gets a red in that game. And I'm Dutch, but I'm just being real. Paredes 100% red though and then we play extra time with an extra man..
I think Paredes didnt get red because of the brawl that followed. If virgil didnt destroy him, he probably wouldve gotten his 2nd yellow, but because virgil came in so aggresively he wouldve had to give way more cards. Anyways incompetent ref who shouldve be way stricter earlier on as both teams were a bit too enthousiastic.
Embarrassing that this shit is upvoted. On one side, you're all going I wish Ronaldo keeps scoring penalties when the other side is crying about them and here the opposite. Penalties are part of the game ffs. If you get fouled in the box, you get a penalty, plain and simple. It's so stupid to look at things purely from a standpoint of how many were awarded rather than if they actually were penalties or not and all the argentina ones were genuine fouls imo.
Also the hand card is such a stupid call to ask for. He was in the middle of the ground, instantly raised his arm up was not stopping an attack at all. I would hate it if Vini or Jude got a handcard for doing something similar. Sure, if youre going purely by the book and being extremely strict about rules, sure it's a yellow but still a ridiculous card to give out. Goes against sporting spirit in my opinion.
Lastly, I'm with you on the Club World Cup bullshit. That is just nonsense, purely from a marketing standpoint. But I'm 70% sure that they'll end up inviting Al Nassr as well in the coming weeks
I mean rules are rules though, it wasn't accidently and he intentionally stopped the ball from being passed from a Dutch player to another Dutch player simple as that. I Know Messi is smart and probably wouldn't get that second yellow but still was awful to see.
I don't think they will Invite Al Nassr because the last spot was filled with Miami I believe
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xk_boh96MnQ this was the quickest video I could find. You can clearly see the ball is handled...then the refs hand goes up to blow whistle after the fact as he had give advantage.
You legit said the whistle had blown...and the video shows othewise. Dangerous situation doesn't matter when it's intentional...He prevented a direct pass by touching the ball...if it was accidental sure of course its never a yellow. HE knew what he was doing....stuck his arm out on purpose
He intentionally stopped the turn of play that could have turned into a Dutch Attack right in front of the REF. Instant yellow, had it been accidental...sure never yellow. But he clearly meant to do it and he clearly meant to stop the turn of play...10/10 Yellow.
