Talking about the complex refereeing situation in the World Cup is not only related to the Argentina and Egypt match. Anyone who has watched many matches can notice the major mistakes made by some referees, which are unworthy of those called elite referees worldwide.

Some think that the French referee who officiated the Argentina and Egypt match is the focus of discussion due to the blatant errors against the Egyptian national team, especially since the majority watched the match away from those who defended him. However, the aforementioned Frenchman was one of the referees who brought their mistakes to the World Cup. It is natural for the head of the FIFA referees committee, the Italian Collina, to come out to defend one of his choices among those he brought to officiate in the World Cup, so that it is not said that his selections were wrong. But I do not think that deep down he is satisfied with most of his refereeing choices, which we have not seen like in the previous World Cup in Qatar. In short, the distinctive mark of the 2026 World Cup, despite the presence of many distinctive marks, is the worst ever, which is the refereeing aspect, whether it be field referees or VAR technology. If this is the case for World Cup referees, then what about the rest of the referees who are classified as lower level across the continents of the world and who officiate decisive matches in competitions in many countries around the world!!!
