Hossam Hassan recounts his conversation with the Argentine referee
Hossam Hassan, the coach of the Egyptian national team, revealed details about the refereeing controversy during the Egypt-Argentina match in the 2026 World Cup, which ended with Argentina winning 3-2 after Egypt had taken a two-goal lead. However, the outcome was overturned in the end. He explained that the referee refused to award two penalties to Egypt, one of which involved Mohamed Salah being fouled. He also faced objections from the coaching staff and players, nearly resulting in a red card for him. Additionally, he discussed a conversation he had with Lionel Messi, during which the latter tried to ask him about the reason for his protests, but he preferred not to engage in a discussion to avoid escalating the situation. The Egyptian team suffered five injuries during the match, forcing the coaching staff to make crucial substitutions amidst the refereeing controversy that impacted the flow of the game.
