Paraguay vs Iraq
This match caused controversy as the referee, Edwin Picon-Ackong, blew the whistle for half time a split-second before Iraq striker Ahmed Radhi's header hit the back of the net, and the goal was ruled out. Picon-Ackong received a lot of criticism for blowing the whistle when Iraq had such a big goalscoring opportunity.[1]

gollark: You can't use an actual *library* that way, I mean, but you can use calling out to external programs in a *vaguely similar way* to dynamic linking.
gollark: Libraries don't, programs do.
gollark: Ish.
