Egypt claims match-fixing after controversial Argentina win

Egypt's national team has accused Argentina's historic comeback victory of being manipulated, citing two controversial refereeing decisions. The African side protested a disallowed goal to Ziko and claimed penalties in Argentina's penalty area that would have changed the match's outcome.

"The result was influenced by factors external to the game. We deserved to win. There was no fair play, no respect," declared Egypt coach Hossam Hassan following Argentina's comeback victory. The French referee François Letexier's performance has come under scrutiny after the match that ended in a dramatic turnaround for Argentina. newsindata.com
