bigdog17k Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 Source: FIFA may sit Slovenia-U.S. refereeJOHANNESBURG – The referee who disallowed a potential game-winning goal for the United States will face an expedited performance review from FIFA and is likely to be excluded from the rest of the World Cup, according to a FIFA source. Koman Coulibaly from Mali disallowed Maurice Edu’s 86th-minute strike that would have given the USA a 3-2 lead over Slovenia at Ellis Park and likely would have led to a thrilling comeback victory Friday. Coulibaly appeared to rule that American midfielder Michael Bradley had impeded a Slovenian defender, even though video replays showed no infringement.Full Article Good I'm glad. Bye bye hunny.

Sħãlïq™ Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 I hope this ref gets banned for life. This ain't his first mistake -- he's an awful ref... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multi-Billionaire Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 A USA victory would have netted me $100 but it's a draw and cost me $100 instead. Luckily I slept through or I coulda punched my TV screen when they zoomed in on his guilty face lol But it's a horrible goal disallow for USA definitely. Bright side, England didn't score so they're still top 2 with Slovenia. England is one very talented but not cohesive at all as a team... they should just give the spot to USA who plays with heart and effort.
