2026 World Cup: The match was rigged for Argentina – Egypt coach, Hassan

Egypt head coach. Hossam Hassan, has claimed their last-16 match at the 2026 World Cup was rigged in favour of Argentina.

The Pharoahs threw away a two-goal lead to lose 3-2 on Tuesday evening.

But some of the officiating calls left Hassan angry after the game.

“I will say what’s on my mind regardless of consequence,” Hassan said.

“This was clearly a rigged match and the whole world saw it.

“And I want to say one more thing: if they want [Argentina] to win so bad, why call everyone to come and participate?”
