Morocco Defeats Argentina 2-1 in Chaotic Olympic Opener After VAR Disallowed Goal
Jul 24, 2024, 05:04 PM
The opening match of the men's football tournament at the Paris 2024 Olympics between Argentina and Morocco descended into chaos. Morocco initially led 2-0 with Soufiane Rahimi scoring twice. Argentina fought back, with Giuliano Simeone scoring, followed by a dramatic equalizer by Cristian Medina in the 90+16th minute of added time. However, the match was suspended for nearly two hours after Moroccan fans stormed the pitch, threw objects and firecrackers at Argentine players. Upon review, VAR disallowed Medina's goal for offside, and the teams played the remaining three minutes behind closed doors in an empty stadium. Morocco ultimately won 2-1.
