The crowd sounds like the Moscow crowd in "Rocky III".

Unbelieveable.

Did McBride affect the play?

Yes. He shaped to flick the ball as it passed right by him, right in front of the goal.

This piece of crap ref from Uruguay is a damn disgrace.

Someone from outside the USA is against the USA? I am shocked! Shocked!

You can tell the Italians are playing to cheat to win -- they flop more than Maradona did in is heyday. And look at the number of offside penalties they get. They keep hoping they will get a NON-call to go along with all the calls they have gotten

Kicking the feet and not the ball also leads to a red when the intention to hurt the other is quite clear. I saw the slow-mo, all decisions go ok.

Let me explain something:

YOU DO NOT GIVE A RED CARD FOR A TACKLE FROM THE SIDE WHEN YOU GET THE BALL.

It's a garbage call.
PURE GARBAGE.

Right, when you get the ball, but the US man didn´t get the ball. He wasn´t even close.
