Obviously everyone is talking about that worse than useless ref stealing one goal that went in the back of the net. He also managed to steal another potential goal that would have made it 1-1 before the half with his yellow card on Findley for a bullshit handball in Slovinia's box that never happened. Oh yeah, as a bonus that same bullshit yellow card was Findley's second of the tournament meaning he can't play against Algeria. Those were just the two worst calls he made. He had a number of other terrible calls that aren't worth mentioning only because they didn't affect the game as much.
Yeah, the US played poorly for part of the game but they still evened out time of possession, doubled Slovenia on corner kicks and shots, almost quadrupled them on free kicks, and had 6 shots on goal to Slovenia's 4. As I said, the US played poorly for part of the game but they more than made up for it and got robbed by the ref.
