Olympic Soccer Is Already Completely Insane; Argentina-Morocco Match Finishes In Empty Stadium

If you thought the Olympics would ease us into competition by sticking a toe in the water like a Parisian mayor trying to prove that the Seine isn't overflowing with feces, you're mistaken.

Instead, we've been thrown into the deep end with fans storming the pitch with firecrackers on Day 1 of the men's soccer tournament during a bizarre match between Morocco and reigning World Cup champs Argentina.

The match took place in Saint-Etienne and saw Morocco jump out to a 2-0 goal lead.

However, in the 68th minute, Argentina's Giuliano Simeone cut the lead in half with a goal.

Then, 15 minutes worth of added time were tacked on to the end of the game and that's when it was during those 15 minutes that Argentina managed to knot the score at 2-2.

That's wild, and things got even wilder when the whistle blew to signal the end of the match and fans started throwing bottles — as well as firecrackers according to some reports — at the Argentinians.

But wait, that's not even close to the craziest part.

VAR ruled that the tying goal was offside… the only thing is that this news came around two hours after the goal had initially been scored.

So, both teams were called back onto the pitch to play the three minutes left on the clock following the disallowed goal in an empty stadium.

Morocco — the reigning African champions — managed to hold on for the win and got their Olympic campaign off on the right foot, but what a way for it to happen.

It's worth noting that Argentina won the 2022 World Cup over France, the nation hosting this year's Games and there's still some bad blood between the two. The crowd reportedly jeered Arentina's national anthem and it's believed that that had to do with a video that emerged of Argentina's Enzo Fernandez and others doing a chant mocking the French.

Whatever the case, the Olympic flame hasn't even bit lit yet and things are already wild.
