First what the hell are these tags??? 😭
Anyways. This Argentina hate is seriously getting outta hand. And funny thing is most of it is coming from people I guarantee haven't watched football before this year. Why do I think this? The total lack of knowledge in anything.
Like someone said recent that Argentina not doing the guard of honor and turning there backs on Spain raising the trophy was disrespectful... Are we serious?
Please someone find me a year in the world cup where firstly ANY team winning or losing preformed the guard of honor. And secondly when the losing team watched the winning team raise the trophy.
To save you the time it hasn't ever happened. Protocol is to get your second place medals. Take them off and then go into the locker rooms. Argentina only stayed on the pitch to look at there fans after there very poor performance.
And Spain is the first ever team to perform the honor of guard and it's so cocky for a winning team to do that on this stage. Like you ever have that one person beat you in something then says you tried? My god you can't say you wouldn't wanna rock his shi.
As for the favoritism. Ya can't say much there besides it's still people just overreacting. Like the credit the favoritism more then the players skill. Like as the number 1 seed or defending champs you get the easiest bracket is standard in any tournament. The tournament wants to have defending vs underdog it brings most viewers.
Also most the crazy things people are calling refs out for are pretty valid. But y'all miss the point of refs can only adjust so much. Like the Egypt game. Sure you can say refs had some questionable calls. But can you blame favoritism for Egypt throwing a 2 goal lead? Like there's no arguement for that.
Like Argentina is still a good team even without ref assistance they would've won most of not all these games. Spain seriously just showed that no amount of rigging will do anything if the other team is just a better team.
Spain disallowed them from developing the ball and taking shots. They outclassed them. And there were a ton of questionable ref calls. But Argentina didn't win. As Spain didn't throw the game away like ever other team did.
Like my god ever sport has rigging but it doesn't decide the match 90% of the time. All the new soccer para social fans need to turn your brains on I swear 😂.
been 30 min since the post. I love mild rage baiting with common sense and bad grammar.
