World Cup FIFA 2022: guessing the champion

Oh dear, should Messi goal have been allowed?
Clearly anticipating a headline moment, two players wearing orange bibs can be seen on the pitch, which, according to FIFA rules, should result in a goal being ruled out. Polish referee Szymon Marciniak should've instead given a free kick to Les Blues and kept the score at 2-2.

Official FIFA rules state: "If, after a goal is scored, the referee realises, before play restarts, that there was an extra person on the field of play when the goal was scored the referee must disallow the goal."

French outlet L'Equipe has been among those to pick up on the error and made their feelings clear. The newspaper wrote: “Except that the goal is invalid If we strictly apply the rules. When Messi volleys Hugo Lloris’ save, some emotionally-charged Argentine substitutes are already on the pitch, ready to celebrate. Which is strictly prohibited.”

 

• Sounds a bit like sour grapes to me (=Typical French) ah well, Mbappe's not laughing now is he?

 

Yeah, I am not going through the thread and realize how far off was my guess. I am happy for Messi but I lost sh!tton of money betting with my homies on the final result. Sometimes I feel that slot machines https://www.canadianroofmasters.ca/online-slots/ aren't that bad as soccer drama
