Egypt takes the ball deep in their defensive half and has a brilliant (sorry) counterattack with a pass/tap-in, which would give them a 2-0 lead. (Their later goal was almost a carbon copy. VAR calls the ref over to review whether Egypt committed a foul in their defensive half to set up the counterattack. I realize that a foul can lead to a goal being disallowed, but this seems way beyond the intent - especially since the "foul" seems to occur regularly.

Then a similar situation occurs when Argentina take the ball from Salah in their defensive half via what might have been a foul and counter for their goal.

Not saying anything was wrong, but let the conspiracies continue.

Salah just got his pocket picked. That one was obvious. * - miamioh_irishfan 2026-07-07 19:08:39
