Take a close look at the assistant referee on the touchline. He clearly witnessed Mohamed Salah being shoved from behind on two separate occasions, yet failed to alert the referee or intervene in any way. These incidents were in plain view and should not have been ignored.

You have never seen football in your life? First time? Its a contact sport. This is normal.

shoves from behind without any attempt to play the ball are fouls under the Laws of the Game. If similar or lesser contact is consistently penalized for one team but ignored for the other, fans are naturally going to question the consistency of the officiating. Fairness means applying the same standard to both sides, not selectively.

People who never watch soccer should not comment, Mohamed. A slight push in the back is never called unless it seriously affects the play; otherwise you'd have 50 penalties per match. On the other hand, this incident in which Ibrahim shoves MacAllister to the ground prevented the Argentinian from receiving Messi's pass and should have been punished with a penalty kick.

Do all Argentines have bad manners? Even a mother lets her child say racist things there

Buddy is talking about some slight shoves while messi is getting slapped and punched at the back of his head and referee didn't even care.

Proof that you have never watched football before, and you are a seasonal fan who don’t want to let other people enjoy the World Cup in peace.

Wait till they start controlling the cameras where you won’t see it to argue about it. They already started but not on a full scale. That’s why u don’t see a clearer video of the other penalty that should’ve been given when they tore that Egyptian’s shirt.

This really just goes to show that you have never watched football apart from the world cup. Theres no point in arguing with you.

If you noticed in this World Cup games, the referees overlooked many acts that were considered foul in the past. They let the players play in this world cup and anybody who did not notice that knows nothing about the history of the world cup and football in general. They played closer to the English premiere League style where the push and shove and minor grab and friction is allowed to a large degree.

This stuff goes on all the time… why do you keep whining?!? Egypt choked giving up 3 goals in 13 minutes!!! That’s an epic choke job! It wasnt the refs fault, it wasnt the fans fault… it was the teams fault! They could’ve played all 11 inside the box and won the game…

Have you ever played this sport? Your lack of understanding of the game would suggest no

It was correct to ignore them as well as it was correct to ignore Salah banging his back into the defender.

French arrogance and collusion. They are always right and they decide what is right from their point of view not with the respect and rules of the game. Mohamed Salah was tripped and ball taken away that led to third goal for Argentina. Simple yet off course ignored and denied.

The problem with the wc is that casual fans that watch every 4 years talk like they watch week in week out. If you have played football at any level you would know that every defender does this to the striker to let them know they are there

There was nothing to alert there neither was there anything to ignore there. There was no ball with any of them aa they were not contesting for anything. That's salah been alert incase they pass the ball to him and that's a defender protecting his territory.

Lol. Egypt got some rough calls but some of you are just broadcasting that you've never played a minute of football This off-the-ball stuff is never given because if it was the ball would never be in open play.

@JoseCCAlmeida Professional football players and commentators and managers have also spoken out about the appalling decisions given by the referee and linesmen all in favour of Argentina.
