Journalist Gaston Edul of TyC Sports channel who followed the event live shared: “The anger of the Argentine team must be put in the right context. Not only because the goal was not recognized (the equalizer 2-2 in the 90+16 minute). There were up to 6 times fans invaded the field in the second half, the remaining time a young fan ran onto the field to ask for a photo with Julian Alvarez.

Then the match was postponed because Moroccan fans threw flares and bottles onto the pitch. That was no coincidence. And on top of that, the players waited more than 2 hours for a solution that even the Moroccan team did not expect. Achraf Hakimi (captain of the Moroccan Olympic team) said that they did not want to play anymore.

“FIFA officials present at the match also disagreed with the referee’s decision. However, after many tense discussions, FIFA agreed with the referee’s decision, checking VAR to see if the equalizer in extra time was valid or not. If valid, the match ends immediately, otherwise the match will be played for 3 more minutes. But it must be exactly 4 to 5 minutes, because the extra time is still available and is deducted from the time fans flooded the field,” Gaston Edul emphasized.

“Meanwhile, when the incident happened to the Argentine Olympic team, it lasted for a long time, causing players in the national team like Messi, De Paul or Tagliafico to watch live and were really disappointed and could not believe the outcome that happened afterwards. 

Messi’s reaction showed that the 37-year-old player was very surprised by the strangest marathon match in Olympic history. Especially when the match took place for only 3 minutes in the empty stands when the spectators had left long before, because the organizers also announced that the match had ended (at that time it was a 2-2 draw),” commented AS .

Marca (Spain) summarized what happened in the match between the Argentine Olympic team and Morocco, in one headline: “Olympic scandal! Flares, fans storming the pitch, the match interrupted, the goal disallowed 2 hours later… and defeat for the Argentine team”.
