FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by kenifeh(m): 12:36am On Jun 16, 2010 |
Argentina’s goal against Nigeria in their group B encounter last Saturday, should have been disallowed by German referee Wolfgang Stark. A FIFA post-match analysis ruled that there was a foul in the build-up to Gabriel Heinze’s stunning header, and that Stark should never have allowed the goal. The FIFA referees’ committee released their findings on Tuesday, as a guide for future judgements in this year’s tournament. And amongst other rulings, they made it clear to referees that they must watch for infractions at corners and free-kicks — specifically attacking players blocking markers, as happened on Saturday. As Juan Sebastian Veron’s cross floated over Walter, Samuel enveloped Chinedu Obasi and stopped him from moving, thereby giving Heinze all the space he needed to propel the ball home. Stark should have therefore penalised Samuel for obstruction and awarded a free-kick to the Super Eagles — a judgement that could have changed the course of the whole game for Argentina. Although the ruling comes too late for Nigeria, it has interesting implications for the rest of the tournament; a sign that FIFA will not tolerate the pushing, shoving and holding commonplace on both sides at dead-ball situations, and that in future such offences will be punished with either disallowed goals or penalties in the case of the defence committing an infraction. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2010/06/15/argentina%e2%80%99s-goal-illegal-fifa/ |

What you sow, Nemesis for demoting Amodu. It will continue to work against Nigeria. |
Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by Nobody: 6:28am On Jun 16, 2010 |
Yea what does this mean? That they'll change the score to 0-0? There surely must be a point to this boring article. |

supereagle: What do you mean? Are you saying this present eagles are not better managed under Las? Or has Amodu faced a deadly squard like Argentina in the past? Please grow up. |

Argentina have clearly robbed us for more than three times, why? |
Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by Nobody: 12:14pm On Jun 16, 2010 |
we all know maradona knows all the football tricks in the world. . . those Argentines didn't play well, but hey. . . they've won so it's too late! better match next time ![]() |
Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by osifred(m): 12:20pm On Jun 16, 2010 |
so what is the essence of this finding by fifa if they will not disallowed the goal and give nigeria and argentina 1 point each or repeat the match. NFL should do something take advantage of his finding to seek for damage by fifa |

Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by badman(m): 12:32pm On Jun 16, 2010 |

Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by Nobody: 12:36pm On Jun 16, 2010 |
Fifa is more concerned about how its profit would be cut short if Nigeria gets booted from the competition. But its a good thing sha Maybe we will be protected from now on |
Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by ayo84(m): 12:38pm On Jun 16, 2010 |

Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by badman(m): 12:41pm On Jun 16, 2010 |

Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by ariy(m): 12:44pm On Jun 16, 2010 |
i saw it the obstruction that very day but i wonder why replay or cameramen didnt c it. maybe i dont know the rule of football but the damage has been done. sorry FIFA |
Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by Mudley313: 12:46pm On Jun 16, 2010 |
What do you mean? Are you saying this present eagles are not better managed under Las? Or has Amodu faced a deadly squard like Argentina in the past? Please grow up. you do know this argentine squad struggled to qualify to this world cup and had to wait till the last game to do so in a continent that had 5 slots, right? this celebration of A LOSS is starting to get irritating. onigbinde, our worse ever world cup coach achieved the same feat as lagerbeer of losing 1 nil to argentina as well |
Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by Tuyis: 12:50pm On Jun 16, 2010 |
The Argentinian was clearly holding Obasi in place, I thought that was a foul. I don't know how the refree could have missed that. Looks like Maradona taught them very well in the art of dirty tricks!!! |
Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by chakula: 1:15pm On Jun 16, 2010 |
What a nonsense is that? why not pointed out the scenerio during the match is going live, we were tired with such nonsense. |
Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by toshmann(m): 1:23pm On Jun 16, 2010 |
mukina2: replay the game? . . . haaa. dont you think this time the argentines would have figured out a way to get past our goalkeeper? a repeat game will be nothing less than 3-0. so better leave it at a respectable 0-1, which is even more respectable when we hear that the goal was ''illegal''. good publicity for our soccer prestige that we lost to argentina through an illegal goal ![]() better than cameroon who lost to JAPAN ![]() |
Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by md4real(m): 1:24pm On Jun 16, 2010 |
Mudley313:exactly my point. It would have been festival of goals as eyeama said: if God has not intervened. Let stop celebrating the loss and face reality. |
Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by bisiaet: 1:42pm On Jun 16, 2010 |
I dont like when this called FIFA say things like this after the damage has be done because this is irrelevant now it really make me sick. So what do they want to do or what relevant is all this nonsense finding now after the goal has be recorded? Rubbish talk. |
Re: FIFA: Argentina’s Goal Against Nigeria Was Illegal (Infractions) by Nobody: 1:43pm On Jun 16, 2010 |
Why is fifa trying to raise up a forgone issue ? By bringing it up do they think they could placate us ? Let us forget all this fifa politics and concentrate on the next match. |

World Cup 2010: Gabriel Heinze's Argentina Strike Should Have Been Disallowed - FIFA Referee's committee criticise Wolfgang Stark's decision not to give a foul for Walter Samuel's obstruction in the build-up to the goal. Argentina missed several gilt-edged chances on their way to a 1-0 reverse of Nigeria on Saturday. However, according to FIFA the one attack that did finish with the net bulging should have been disallowed by referee Wolfgang Stark. Ole reports that a FIFA post-match analysis ruled that there was a foul in the build-up to Gabriel Heinze's stunning header, and that Stark should never have allowed the goal. The FIFA referees' committee released their findings on Tuesday, as a guide for future judgements in this year's tournament. And amongst other rulings, they made it clear to referees that they must watch for infractions at corners and free-kicks - specifically attacking players blocking markers, as happened on Saturday. As Juan Sebastian Veron's cross floated over Walter, Samuel enveloped Chinedu Obasi and stopped him from moving, thereby giving Heinze all the space he needed to propel the ball home. Stark should have therefore penalised Samuel for obstruction and awarded a free-kick to the Super Eagles - a judgement that could have changed the course of the whole game for Argentina.
