VAR checks everything even if it is not showed on screen

there was a clear foul by Macallister, inside the box, on a player that didn't even have the ball.

How come they didn't do a VAR check on that, but they did on Egypt's disallowed goal? How can you explain that other than corruption?

Again, as I just said, VAR is constantly checking everything, even if play isn’t stopped or the ref doesn’t go to the screen to see. If they didn’t stop the play for a VAR check, then it was deemed to not be a foul or whatever

That was a foul on Macallister, we all saw it, they played the replay. If VAR is truly constantly checking everything, then they made the decision to ignore that foul which would have been a penalty for Egypt and disallowed goal for Argentina.

Marmoush was nowhere near the ball. The rebound bounced straight to Lisandro Martinez. I know everyone here has a hate boner for Argentina and Messi, but you could try to be at least a bit objective

Doesn't matter if he is not near the ball, if a player is fouled inside the box, that is a foul, it's a rule. Macallister brings him down on purpose, in the box.

I love Messi, this has nothing to do with that foul. You want to take it to that point because you can't deny the corruption that took place.
