The one thing that everyone is conveniently forgetting, is that the ref blew his whistle very early on, and as such, most of the Slovenian players stopped trying to defend the ball. Chances are if he hadn’t blown, at least one of them would have kept going and got to the ball before Edu.

OMG I just watched the game again and I focused on that scene specifically where he called his foul/offside From my understanding…. an offside can only be ruled if the player active… and the ball is going towards is off side and only one such player met that rule but if you look at the th far left corner of the screen the defender there is far back and there is no possible way for it to be offside  so the next possible way to blow the whistle is a foul. On looking at the play again there are 3 fouls on that play. All 3 are on Slovenian players and they are holding… like literally gripping them around the waist in a sort of rear bear hug maneuver not allowing them to get free.  2 players fall on the play a Slovenian and an American… the American slid on the ground trying to get to the ball and the Slovenian dove… there is no foul This game just goes to show what a terrible referee this guy is and that Slovenians are dirty players and can not win a clean game. The amount of fouls they were committing against the US was just atrocious and they got away with so many of them

WTF?? I saw that the idiot made a BLOG to respond to all the criticism
