The arbitration excitement reached its climax in the Qatar World Cup in the final match, which ended with the coronation of Argentina after defeating France with a penalty shootout 4-2 after the end of the match in its original and extra time with a 3-3 draw, including 3 penalty kicks, amid calls for other penalties, which we will discuss. Explanation and modification.
The Polish match referee, Simon Marchiniak, awarded a penalty kick to Argentina in the 22nd minute, after Frenchman Osman Dembele pushed Argentine striker Angel Di Maria in his back when he passed him with the ball. Messi scored Argentina's first goal.

The 61st minute witnessed a similar push, but this time in favor of Argentina. The referee refused to award it a penalty kick, even though the French defender did not play the ball and pushed him clearly. It is strange that the video referee “Var” did not indicate to the referee to see it again on the display screen next to the stadium.
Either he supported Marchignac's decision, or the referee refused and upheld his decision.
And this kick - if it was counted and scored - would have decided the outcome of the match in favor of Argentina, and I think that if this violation occurred and the result was still a tie;
The referee, who did not commit any foul in the match other than this foul, would have counted it.
The referee awarded the second penalty kick in the match in the 79th minute, when Frenchman Randall Moani overtook the Argentine defense with the ball and entered the penalty area, to be grabbed by Nicholas Otamendi from his shoulder and knocked to the ground. For France, who lit the match.

It seems that the referee's calculation of two penalty kicks made the French players drool;
Its player, Marcus Thuram, tried to get a second penalty kick for the roosters in the 87th minute, but the referee refused to count it, and even awarded him an indirect free kick for representation, while showing him the yellow card, and the referee’s decision was successful.
Because the contact was normal, but Thuram tried to make the referee feel obstructed by hanging his right leg in the leg of the defender fixed on the ground, and then falling in a way that might deceive any referee;
But Marchignac was alert without the help of the mouse.

The third penalty kick in the match was in favor of France, and the referee awarded it in the 116th minute when Mbappe's shot hit the arm of Gonzalo Montiel, the Argentine player, inside his penalty area, and the decision was correct;
Because the defender’s arm was raised and his body “enlarged”, and Article 12 “Mistakes and Misconduct” stipulates that enlarging the body with the arm: that is, the hand movement being abnormal is considered intentional, and it is the main condition for calculating hand touch violations.
