The foul occurred 100 yards away, leading FOX Sports analysts to debate whether VAR overstepped its boundaries. Despite the disallowed goal, Zico scored again in the 67th minute to give Egypt a 2-0 lead. Argentina fought back, scoring twice in the final ten minutes, including an equalizer by Lionel Messi, to leave the controversial decision as a major talking point.
