Egypt Presses FIFA for Probe After Referee Disputes in Argentina World Cup Loss

1 min read

The Egyptian Football Association has asked FIFA to review the officiating after Egypt's World Cup round-of-16 exit to Argentina, alleging "double standards" on the pitch. Among the disputed calls were a disallowed goal by Mostafa Zico and a penalty appeal involving Mohamed Salah that went unheeded in Argentina's 3-2 victory.

The EFA wants the match referee and VAR crew removed from the tournament, citing serious errors and unfair treatment. Coach Hossam Hassan and Zico have also spoken out against the rulings. FIFA has been approached for comment.
