In the first football match of the Olympics, between Argentina and Morocco, something that had never been seen before happened.

Argentina equalized 2-2 in the 106th minute, which resulted in hard objects being thrown and the pitch being invaded by many Moroccan fans. The referee sent the teams to the dressing rooms and it was thought that the challenge had ended in a draw. But then the organizers announced that in fact the challenge had been suspended due to the fireworks thrown by the fans and that the stadium had to be emptied before the match could continue.

Meanwhile, Argentina’s goal was being reviewed by VAR.

The stadium was emptied and after two hours, the teams returned to the playing field. There, the referee made the VAR sign and went to see the footage on the monitor, disallowing Argentina’s goal when 2 hours had passed since the teams had left the field.

The match restarted and 3 minutes were played, and then the referee signaled its end, decreeing a 2-1 victory for Morocco.
