Olympic Football: Fans Invade Pitch, Goal Disallowed As Morocco 'win' Against Argentina Two Hours After Scheduled End
Paris Olympic Games: “It’s the biggest circus I’ve ever seen in my life," said Argentina team manager Javier Mascherano as his team's opening match against Morocco in the Olympic Games football competition caused a massive controversy in Paris on Wednesday. The Games witnessed unprecedented controversy and a major scandal after Argentina's match was suspended due to hooliganism by Morocco fans in the final minutes of the match, their equaliser disallowed, and teams forced to play the final few minutes two hours after scheduled close of the match.
The match was halted at 2-2 when several Moroccan fans invaded the pitch and scared the Argentina players with crackers soon after the South Americans scored the equaliser. There was high drama as Argentina's 90+16th minute equaliser was eventually ruled out due to offside after a VAR check which took place two hours after it was scored.
