There SHOULD be one for Italy's rigged WC. The shit that went down is comical, too bad we don't have video footage of it.>The Italian federation played a key role in the selection of referees, allowing them to weed out unfavorable referees in advance and favor those who had previously officiated matches involving the Italian team to their advantage. >During the 1-0 for the Italians, the Spanish substitute goalkeeper was clearly hindered by several Italians, while Meazza even leaned on him to head the ball. Despite strong protests from the Spaniards, the goal was allowed. In the aftermath, the Italians stood out due to unfair actions, which were rarely penalized by the referee. By the end of the match, the Spaniards had three injured players — substitutions were not allowed. Over the course of the game, the Spaniards were denied two penalties and, in the second half, even two legitimate goals. >The Italians managed to prevail against Austria despite the additional strain from the replay. Ultimately, a questionable performance by the Swedish referee Ivan Eklind, who had been invited as Benito Mussolini's personal guest of honor the day before, once again decided the hosts' advancement. The only goal of the game came in the 18th minute, when several Italians pushed Austrian goalkeeper Peter Platzer, who had the ball in his hands, over the goal line. Ivan Eklind even actively interfered in the game by heading away a cross intended for the unmarked Austrian striker Karl Zischek.Kek. Also>The Italians also benefited from the referee's performance in the final. The Swedish referee Ivan Eklind – who was already considered weak in the Austria-Italy semifinal – was lenient towards the Italians' overly aggressive play in the second half.
