Does anyone else remember Argentina vs Nigeria at the 2018 World Cup? Because I still haven't forgotten what happened that night. Messi gave Argentina the lead early, Victor Moses equalised from the penalty spot, and Nigeria were on the verge of reaching the knockout stage. Then came the moment that still leaves a bitter taste... Marcos Rojo clearly handled the ball inside the box. The referee, Cüneyt Çakır, went to VAR, reviewed the incident... and somehow decided it wasn't a penalty. Even John Obi Mikel confronted him afterwards, and, according to Mikel, the referee admitted the ball had hit Rojo's hand but simply said he didn't know why VAR told him not to award the penalty. Minutes later... Rojo scored the winner that sent Argentina through and knocked Nigeria out. One of the most controversial World Cup refereeing decisions involving Nigeria... Yet somehow, we hardly ever talk about it. Does anyone else still remember that robbery? 🇳🇬💔
