🚨 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.”
This is what so many of us have been saying.
Yes, VAR controversies happen, but you usually win some and lose some. Maybe 50/50. Maybe 70/30.
With Argentina, every single VAR intervention - or lack of it - goes their way.
100/0.

Aquí le mostraron tarjeta amarilla a Olise tras una clara simulación del futbolista paraguayo.
¿El VAR intervino para corregir la decisión, retirarle la amarilla al francés y sancionar al paraguayo? No.
Incluso fue rechazada la solicitud de Francia para que se le retirara la amonestación a Olise y pudiera disputar el siguiente partido.
Por eso no me cansaré de decirlo: Argentina juega con un reglamento distinto.
Este Mundial está perversamente diseñado para facilitarle el camino y llevarla lo más lejos posible. En Qatar 2022 ocurrió exactamente lo mismo, solo que con un nivel de descaro todavía mayor.

Félicitations à la FIFA pour avoir attribué la Coupe du Monde à un pays capable de retenir pendant 7 heures un joueur qui n’a jamais fait parler de lui autrement que par ses performances sur le terrain.
Quand le meilleur buteur de l’Irak, qualifié pour le plus grand événement sportif de la planète, peut être traité comme un suspect à son arrivée, difficile de ne pas s’interroger sur l’accueil qui sera réservé à certaines sélections (Iran) et à leurs supporters.
Pendant des années, chaque aspect de l’organisation au Qatar a été scruté, commenté et critiqué. J’espère que les États-Unis feront l’objet du même niveau d’exigence et de la même couverture médiatique.
Bravo, Monsieur Infantino.

Ash Sarkar, "Jim Ratcliffe is a stinking hypocrite"
"He became a tax resident of Monaco to save £4 billion that could have gone towards British schools, the British NHS, towards British defence, instead he decided he wanted that money for his own pocket"
"If it wasn't for immigration, Manchester United would have had just three of their starting eleven last night - not really going to beat West Ham with that"
"The kind of language: being colonised by immigrants"
"That moves beyond talking about immigration as a policy"
"You're talking about people who come here to live, to work, to have families, as though they are a hostile occupying force, taking away your language, your culture, your ability to survive"
Victoria Derbyshire, "Some voters believe their language is taken away"
Ash Sarkar, "There are some people who believe the moon is made of cheese, but it doesn't mean they are right"
Well said @AyoCaesar 🧀

Indian fans aren’t going to like this. Listen to Nasser Hussain. He has further exposed the ICC and the BCCI. He also praised Pakistan and Bangladesh for standing up to the hypocrisy of the ICC.

This is how a true champion should behave: Max Verstappen had a terrible race, but he’s genuinely thrilled for Nico Hülkenberg.
Max is so happy for Nico, it’s as if he won the race himself 🧡💚
