Fans Fume As Balogun Is Sent Off For Same Foul Messi Commited by cr7lomo(op): 8:01am On Jul 02
Folarin Balogun was sent off for a foul on a Bosnian player after scoring the opener . The problem now is that he was sent off for the same exact foul that Messi commited against Algeria... Messi is presently on 6 goal , of which if he was correctly sent off , his next game would have been in the round of 16 , if they qualified .. This is the favorism for Messi by FIFA that real football fans have been complaining about over the years .

Do you agree that Messi is being favoured and has been the most favoured football player in history of the game ... from the Barcelona days especially in 2011 against Chelsea and the number of penalties he got at the Qatar 2922 world cup ...

If he rightly got the red card , he will be on zero goal and would not have broken miroslav Klose record. Mbappe would have been the right person to have broken the record

Did FIFA perform all the wonders for him that he's been performing?? How do you give someone even a yellow card for something that is CLEARLY accidental. The US ref was a fool to give that kid red card for accidental collision.
MESSI IS THE GOAT BY FAAARR!!!

So when its clearly accidental despite being a dangerous play...the person should not be sent off?? See reasoning

How can it be same foul?.....if you guys need an excuse to cry as usual then you can go ahead and start the usual routine.

We all saw how FIFA helped their boy pendu by cancelling the match bans he was supposed to get after a red card because that would mean he would miss one or more matches heading into the world and you guys said nothing.

At least Messi was a strong contender.... Ronaldo was given that of Ribery when he shouldn't even be in top 3.

In fact, that of messi is even worse, because his was deliberate while Balogun's own happened because he lost his balance.

Please go back to 2010 collect it and give it to wesley sniedjer asap.
Don't you know that who God has blessed no man can curse. That is the case of Lionel aside the fact that he uses his talent extraordinarily.

FIFA wants to hand over the cup to messi again as they did previously
Re: Fans Fume As Balogun Is Sent Off For Same Foul Messi Commited by kenex4ever(m): 1:42pm On Jul 02
Which mumu fans

Just say penaldo fans fumes because they are jealous of Messi.

We have had more than 10 people in this WC do exactly or worse than what Messi did (which was without force) and were not penalized.

But because it's Messi, the dogz will bark.

Penaldo shouldnt have played the first two WC matches, Messi fans did not cry.

Re: Fans Fume As Balogun Is Sent Off For Same Foul Messi Commited by RIALITI: 1:49pm On Jul 02
The same foul
Different ref
Different game tempo
Different atmosphere

Above all it was a different day.
No day has ever repeated itself

Everyday comes with it own surprises. So even with human rules and regulations the world can't be balance. You win some days you loss on another.

There are days Messi was rough handled and bullied on the ball yet the defender spent complete 90 minutes on the pitch. (Sergio Ramos et al)

When you are great you get extra favours. That said, Balogun should never have been sent off for that. So it was rather an injustice against Balogun, than a favour for Messi.
