Most Controversial World Cup Matches of All Time

[@Averifiedperson7712]

Uruguay vs Ghana was not at all controversial. The referee rightfully gave Suarez his punishment and gave Ghana the penalty. Its not FIFA, the referee or any of the Uruguayan players' fault that Asamoah Gyan missed that penalty.

1978: Argentina v. Peru. The match was scheduled such that Argentina would know exactly what result was needed in order to proceed to the finals. When game time came, Argentina knew that they needed to win by four goals. Bribes and threats were offered to the Peruvian team to let Argentina win big. Argentina won 6-0 and went on to win the title. This match is the main reason the 1978 world cup is considered the most corrupt in history.

[@nickbuis3307]

@@olivieru "Fake penalty" is your opinion, not facts, yeah sure a penalty might be controversial, but it's part of the game and there is a lot of "first" given against Argentina and it doesn't invalidate a victory. I hardly see people complain about the penalty not given to Argentina in 2014 which clearly was caused by Neuer or the bad penalty given against Argentina in 1990 5 minutes towards the end, it's the first ever penalty given in a final and also in that match Argentina received the first red card in a final and that doesn't not invalidate Germany winning. Also, Argentina is the first to receive two penalties against them in a final. These are not complains but just pointing out that penalties, red cards and controversy are part of football and Argentina had their fair share against and in favor, but the resilience of the team pushed through and that's the truth. People who cry rigged are not bassing their opinions on facts but are just people who can't accept truth and then cry. With VAR being a thing, penalties will be more common now, especially with teams that are aggressive in their attacks, and people should get used to it. When France became Champions in 2018 with 4 penalties, one of them against Argentina, nobody blinked an eye, but when Argentina won, the sea of tears is never ending. Both Argentina and France received 6 penalties in their favor between 2018 and 2022, France had 3 of those 6 against Argentina alone. Facts are facts, and the anti Argentina bias is just people who can't accept defeat.

First Game in World Cup history to go to penalty kicks. Germany being down 3-1 in OT, and fighting back to tie it. Last minute OT tying goal on a. bicycle kick no less. Germany also behind after 3 penalty kicks but then German goalie saving next two and Germany pulls ahead. Plus Germany already the viallains in the tournament for the shameful final group stage match with Austria where both teams were already qualified with a 1-0 Germany score so they just passed the ball around for 70 minutes, costing Algeria a spot in playoffs because their game was day before and final score known

[@stxa2594]

You're mixing up a lot of things. Aside from Schumacher's unsportsmanlike behaviour, nothing at all was "controversial" about that match. Actually that match was one of the finest of 1982's WC (I watched it live on TV). It was a fierce fight, and the French simply failed to finish the job. And if you know the German spirit back then (Ich bin übrigens auch Deutscher ;-) ) you should know that German teams were only beaten after the referee blew the final whistle. Besides, the blame for that awful group-stage match against Austria should actually be on FIFA for fixing such a silly tournament schedule (in 1978 they had made the very same mistake, enabling Argentina to become an unjustified champion instead of Brazil).

Its interessting that spain always was in the circle of favourites for every tournament, but as long as raul, who without a shadow of a doubtvwas a world class player, was there they won nothing, when ge left the national team, they started winning everything 😅

[@domingocarbonperal5712]

El Raulito hoy en día no se comería ni los mocos, porque la mayoría de los goles que metía los hacía en fuera de juego, y le echó de la selección el seleccionador que hizo que ganaramos la Euro 2008 y encontráramos nuestro estilo porque se creía que el mandaba más que nadie, (todos sabemos de la prepotencia de los madridistas, y que se creen indispensables)

[@Agumon10]

Hala Madrid e nada más

U can put all argentina matchs in world cup 2022 in one video 😅

[@aryamanagarwal2155]

Cry Pendu fan 😂

[@Joaking_68]

Just a person that doesnt know about football would do that

[@IeldudeI]

What about Guatemala vs Germany 1950???

[@IeldudeI]

The Mexico Netherlands was NOT controversial at all. Mexico is just a cry baby team.

[@DreamteamCarlo]

The S-Korea matches were different from the other 2 imo. Those Korean matches were simply 2 x 90 minutes of pure sadism by the refs.

[@Bayern_Supremacy]

The title is just wrong...

[@rubberroast1598]

Ahh..... the days before video review

[@KK-hw7od]

Maybe you can the music make a little bit louder.

[@Larssonnie06]

2014 Netherlands vs Mexico wasn't controversial, yes I'm Dutch but if you see the replay, it was a deserved penalty bc #4 of Mexico stood upon his foot to block him getting further with the ball so the penalty was deserved! 🇳🇱🇲🇽

Uruguay vs Ghana. The only time I cried for football😢😢😢😢 I still curse Asamoah Gyan

[@BELIBILU]

والله انك اسطوره كيف تأتي بهاذه المباريات بدقه وشاشه واضحه

[@threeptt]

Spain v Korea in the last game looks well dodgy, the Spain goal wasn't even close to being out and the pen save Korean keeper is miles off his line

[@juanmanuelmartinayuso5793]

Y el brasil España del 86, eso sí que fue un robo de categoría

[@perryroldhan1758]

italie-corée : j'espére que l'on a jamais revu ce vendu arbitrer à haut niveau !

[@JuanDa17]

El Brasil 🇧🇷 Vs. 🇨🇴 Colombia (Cuartos de Final del Mundial de 2014) donde el árbitro anula un gol a Colombia legítimo y luego regala el segundo gol para Brasil de tiro libre cuando no existia la falta y la dureza de los jugadores brasileños a los colombianos y la permisividad del árbitro español

[@miladomranloo8330]

The most shameful game in history of football 🤬

[@Chitotho]

England vs Germany !!! The goal that passed the line

[@fiestaaakanaeru6135]

I think the Uruguay vs Ghana match was not controversial, the referee also gave a strict penalty to Suarez and awarded a penalty to Ghana. This is just a matter of failing to execute the penalty😅😅

[@safsaf99]

Why is the Netherlands va Mexico match considered "controversial"?

[@jacobfeldman364]

Mexicans think Gio Dos Santos did not clip Robben, hence their famous cry of "no era penal"

[@Trancymind]

@@jacobfeldman364And yet it was a clear penalty.

[@danboyisdopex9864]

​@@Trancymind It actually wasn't look again

[@tonybaihao4178]

@@danboyisdopex9864 I mean, there is contact, which is enough to give the penalty. Also, if that isn't a penalty, then Argentina should not have had a penalty in the 2022 World Cup final. The situations are similar, with a player going down after a slight contact with an opponent.

[@danboyisdopex9864]

@@tonybaihao4178 It barely touched him though and the angle was enough for the ref to blow the whistle however with the Argentina situation they definitely got away from a few penalties that shouldn't have been called.

[@thecartoonland8216]

mr. suarez this is football not hand ball

[@Milarqui]

Cuál es la polémica en el Paises Bajos-México de 2014? Y en el España-Corea del Sur os habéis saltado una parte muy importante - los múltiples fuera de juego que se pitaron pero no eran.

[@Bayern_Supremacy]

Spain were so bad at football before 2005, imagine having Morientes the flop as your striker.

[@jurgengjidia8657]

They also had Raul as their striker up until Euro 2008 when the coach left him out of the squad

[@danielmateo7564]

Tu no tienes ni puta idea de fútbol

[@Trancymind]

European teams going to the world cups are not considered bad teams. Your comment is 100% false. Especially if the team reaches the knockout stages which Spain did in 2002,1998, 1994, 1990, 1986, 1982. Spain even reached the semifinals in 1950.

[@adrianwebb1662]

What was controversial about the Holland Mexico game ?

[@CosmosZeroX]

Italy would have won the championship 2002 and 2006 if not the referees were all corrupt in 2002. It would have been Italy or Spain. This was surely the biggest scandal in football history. That Italy team was the best ever, thats why they won in 2006. They could already have won in 2002. That Italy and Spain game against South Corea has got to be the biggest scandal ever. Look at the referee, 100 % corrupt.

[@stxa2594]

I disagree about the outcome of the tournament. Brazil were by far the best team in 2002, they would have beaten Italy or Spain, too.

[@Samsam-du4yl]

i disagree about the issue of 2002 and also for 2006; materazzi is a bad player; italy didn't played well et should not win

[@naseefnowfel]

In world cup most controversial mathes are South Korea 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅🤣🤬🤬🤬👺

They showed the least controversial matches :)

[@MadridMmdjid]

L'égyptien el guendour était toujours un grand arbitre il était toujours ferme comme l'italien colina mais depuis qu'il a dirigé Espagne vs Corée du Sud zu mondial 2002 je le déteste énormément c'est lui a brisé le rêve espagnol en le privant d'atteindre les quarts de finale

[@pici5533]

2002 was most corrupt cup ever. I love South Korea, But cmon guys. Cmon.

[@나래꿍]

The most corrupt conventions of all time were the 1934 and 1978 conventions

[@Fortunato7]

I think people look way too much at the bad refereeing and are overlooking how horrible Italy played. They had many chances to score and bottled it, Spain had too but not as much as Italy

[@JokoJMC]

not uruguay vs ghana but suarez vs ghana 😂
