A whole tournament of Egypt, Netherlands, Switzerland, everyone shouting bias, Collina defending every call, Molina’s “mafia” documentary… then Enzo Fernández flattens Cubarsí in the 93rd minute of the final and suddenly the ref discourse flips overnight.
Some quotes going around: “First honest red card Argentina’s seen all tournament.”
“Funny how he only became controversial once Argentina lost.”
“Didn’t blink, didn’t wait on VAR, just showed the card.” So genuine question: was Vinčić actually the straightest whistle all tournament, or is this just recency bias since it finally went against Argentina?

Nah he was solid the whole way, people just weren’t watching him closely because Argentina kept winning. Two clear yellows, no hesitation, no theatre. That’s literally the job.
The referee did well,football won 🥇
