Schubert: Spain won the World Cup despite rejection by the referee and FIFA.

Egyptian journalist Ahmed Shubert praised Spain’s performance in the 2026 World Cup finals, saying La Roja deserved the title after defeating Argentina, while criticizing refereeing and FIFA.

“Spain is a really great team, their players are very harmonious, Rodri is an exceptional player and Luis de la Fuente is a great coach who has the tools to lead them to victories. Spain taught Argentina a lesson despite the fundamentals of football and they won despite everything winning for Argentina. the Spaniards.”

Schubert’s comments came after Spain were crowned World Cup 2026 champions, beating Argentina 1-0 in the final to win their second ever World Cup title.

These statements are an extension of Schubert’s position during the tournament, as he previously strongly criticized the refereeing decisions that witnessed the quarter-final match between Argentina and Switzerland, given that the Video Assistant Technology (VAR) intervention in the incident of sending off Switzerland striker Brielle Ambo wrote that at the time he was Argentina striker Brielle Ambo in the interest of the national team. the decisions “made us hate Messi and football”.

His criticism also came in the wake of the refereeing controversy that followed the match between Egypt and Argentina in the Round of 16, a game that sparked widespread debate over refereeing decisions, after which Schubert continued to repeatedly criticize the refereeing of Argentina’s national team matches until the end of the tournament.
