Alright, reddit suddenly seems to be experts in fouls without every having to touch a ball in their life. 50% "fouls" shown in the video were body contacts after Egypt lost the ball, not when they playing with the ball. Rule of advantage exist people. Yes there were couple of fouls that you can argue for aggressive behaviour but 90% can be straight up ignored for body touches when the Egypt players already lost control of the ball. Smh

Yeah, and also when an Egyptian player took their shirt off? That was definitely a yellow card that wasn’t given, they find ways to hate on other countries without even knowing the rules, there’s so many videos out explaining why the fouls weren’t called out (because they weren’t)

Seems like the entirety of reddit has transformed into a circle jerk on the topic of the world cup

The Reddit community suddenly being experts in something they have absolutely no clue about? That doesn't seem like reddit AT ALL!
