Egypt's VAR Woes: A Rebuttal to FIFA's Refereeing System The Egyptian Football Association has lodged a formal complaint with FIFA against referee Francois Letexier and his team following their 3 2 loss to Argentina in the World Cup round of 16.
The EFA's request that Letexier be removed from the rest of the tournament is a bold move, but it raises more questions than answers about the efficacy of FIFA's refereeing system.
The controversy surrounding Egypt's loss is not new; VAR has been at the center of several high profile disputes in recent years.
