The Egyptian Football Federation sent a formal filing to FIFA on July 8. The filing comes after Argentina’s 2-1 quarter-final win over Egypt on July 7. The Egyptian FA says the referees made biased calls that affected the result. It demands a re-evaluation of the officiating and penalties for the officials involved.
Belgium’s federation also lodged a protest with FIFA. The protest concerns the allocation of a training pitch before a possible knockout match. Belgium claims the pitch assignment created a disadvantage. Both federations are waiting for FIFA’s response.
