Piers Morgan says he would leave Lionel Messi 𝐎𝐔𝐓 of his all-time XI 🤔👀

Egypt striker Zico has slammed their defeat to Argentina as 'RIGGED' in a furious rant where he claimed the referee 'didn't want them to win' 😳

🗣️: “The referee wasn’t good, he was unfair. His injustice was clear. He persecuted us from the start of the match. He doesn’t want us to win.

“It was a rigged game. It wasn’t our fault. That referee… it seems like this match was rigged. We were winning 2-0, and he kept coming at us.

“Congratulations to Argentina on another World Cup, it seems.

“At no point did we think the match was already decided. We knew we were facing the reigning world champions.

“Even before the game started, we knew we would be facing a very strong team and one of the favorites for the title.

“But if they had won solely on their own merits it would have been very different for us.” 🚨🚨🚨

The referees for France vs Morocco are all Argentinian.

This is the first time in the 2026 World Cup that all match referees are from the same country.

🚨 Egypt asked for a penalty after two possible fouls before Argentina’s winning goal.

However, no penalty was awarded, and the goal was allowed… Egypt was furious and Salah laughed at the referee 😤

Was that the correct decision? 👀

Lionel Scaloni has admitted he broke down in tears after Argentina's heroic comeback against Egypt, and has said he 'will never abandon the Argentine people' 🙌

🗣️: “What we have done today is as good as anything we have achieved in the past with this team.

“I cried because I am very emotional.

“But it is true that this team will never abandon the Argentine people.

“I suffered as much as any fan but that is why I am a coach, to love through these moments.

“And that’s what I talk about with my coaching staff. For all of us who play football, these emotions are incredible.

"Until the referee blows the final whistle, the game isn't over.

“The worse the situation, the more these players give.

“We have players who believe it's possible to win, and who understand that it's also possible to lose.

“This makes the players calmer. They believe in themselves.

“Football is tactics and strategy, but also heart. We always face the music.

“If we are going to lose, I’d want to do it playing a game like that.

“Leo could have missed the penalty and given up. But he always asks again, tries again. It gives me goosebumps.” ❤️

Messi’s tears of joy. Ronaldo’s tears of heartbreak.

One dream lives on, the other is over 💔🏆
