C'est un vol manifeste ! L'arbitrage de ce soir est une honte pour le football.
Nous avons été victimes d'une injustice flagrante de la part de l'arbitre. Ses décisions contestables ont clairement désavantagé l'Égypte et ont pesé lourdement sur le résultat final. L'arbitrage a été tout simplement scandaleux et a complètement faussé le match. Nous avons été privés d'une victoire méritée, et c'est inacceptable !
Cependant, notre équipe nationale reste composée de vrais guerriers et de champions, malgré cette injustice flagrante. Fiers de nos joueurs qui se sont battus jusqu'au bout.
L'Égypte restera toujours au-dessus de tout.
