New Zealand v Egypt - Omar Al Ali (UAE)

I can see why he was only appointed as a reserve referee. The
match isn't over but it's probably the poorest refereeing
performance I've seen all tournament. Foul detection is
inconsistent. Players have been protesting every decision he has
made and he has shown no authority in dealing with them. His
worst moment was allowing Egypt to take a free kick while he was
still issuing a yellow card to a NZ player.
It hasn't been a difficult game and thankfully his performance
hasn't been consequential. But he hasn't been good enough.
