The match was 21 June 1982, featured France vs. Kuwait, and was a first round match of the single elimination phase. The referee was Myroslav Ivanovych Stupar (Ukrainian).

The argument consisted of the fact that a whistle was blown in the stands and the defense subsequently stopped playing. The referee, after collecting information from other sources, agreed and disallowed the goal. The decision was not a game changing one due to France winning the match with a 4-1 result.

Under today's Laws of the Game and referee instruction, this is a correct decision due to the whistle being an outside agent. (Similar to a dog running onto the field and interfering with play.)
