Supporter Gisela Sánchez has launched a petition on Change.org urging FIFA to replay the match, which was settled by a Ferran Torres goal in extra time. At the time of writing, the petition had already attracted more than 80,739 signatures.
The petition criticizes Slovenian referee Slavko Vincic, accusing him of a “controversial and corrupt” performance, and calls on football’s governing body to reassess the decisions made during the game.
However, the organizer does not provide verified evidence to back up these claims, relying instead on social media videos that she argues highlight incidents that favored Spain.
Would you like me to expand on the role of referees, the process of FIFA reviews, or the impact of petitions in sports?
