Egypt coach Hossam Hassan has accused officials of unfair officiating following his team's 3-2 defeat to Argentina in the World Cup Round of 16. Egypt had led 2-0 with just 11 minutes remaining, but Argentina scored three unanswered goals to advance to the next stage.
Hassan expressed outrage after the match, stating that his team suffered due to controversial VAR rulings and refereeing decisions. He maintained that Egypt was denied a fair outcome, citing key moments that were not reviewed or were incorrectly judged by the match officials.
The dramatic turnaround has sparked debate over the consistency of officiating in high-stakes matches, though FIFA has yet to issue a formal response.
