Controversy erupted after Lionel Messi's record-breaking 17th World Cup goal in Argentina's 2-0 win over Austria. Austria coach Ralf Rangnick claimed Alexis Mac Allister fouled Xaver Schlager in the buildup to the goal and said VAR was "not brave enough" to intervene. Footballer-turned-pundit Peter Schmeichel also argued it should've been disallowed. Messi later scored another goal in the match.
