All Referee Crew for France-Morocco Match is from Argentina, do you think this will affect the outcome of today match?

Nah they'll call it fair, but you just know the conspiracy theories are already loaded and ready to fire if a single call goes France's way lol

theyll call it down the middle cause their careers are on the line but honestly i trust neutral refs more than picking europeans for a game with a european team, less subconscious bias even if theyre all argentinian

watched a copa america game a while back where the ref crew was all from brazil and they let so much physical stuff go it basically turned into a wrestling match, was super annoying to watch tbh. if these argentine refs let the game flow without too many soft whistles i think it actually favors morocco a little more but who knows really

Honestly i think people are overthinking it. Rather have a crew from a neutral country like Argentina than someone from UEFA where there could be subtle favoritism toward France without even realizing. Worst case they overcompensate and call it too tight but that beats a ref letting everything slide for one side.

Has the referee from Argentina ever handled a match involving Frrance before or is this totally new territory for him? Just wondering if there’s any past history we can peek at.

It's probably the safest call they could make honestly, picking officials from way outside the UEFA bubble where the biases are less baked in. Let's just hope they don't flip a coin to decide on a penalty or something.

I get why they went outside UEFA to avoid bias, but Argentina's got their own history with France after the World Cup final, no? Feels like a bit of a weird choice, makes you wonder if any Moroccan players have history with these specific refs from South American competitions.
