The US header goal, I guess that could be argued as a pull-down by the US. But the Swedish goal? No way that was even close to offsides, but I guess the ref got confused because a US player basically passed it to the Swedish player.

If it were basketball, I'd suspect a makeup call. The refs erased two goals, one for each team, seconds apart. I agree the second was a clearly bad call, but the first was at least highly questionable.

The call on the US foul was questionable.

But the offsides call on Sweden was ridiculous.
