I agree it prevented the goal and handball but his arms were already out...he didn't throw them out at the last second.

Why was the third goal by the US team not allowed in the US vs Slovenia game ???
From what I'm hearing, officialting at the games sucks !!

Hands is hands and thus the referee is allowed to pull red. Nothing wrong about that as it's according to regulation.
I agree, that third goal was a good one and should have been acknowledged. A pitty for the US player, who made a marvalous come-back during the game.

It was clearly a goal
but the US have given a good account of themselves this far
they showed heart against England and in coming back from two goals down against Slovenia, they showed character. I'll be very surprised if they don't progress with only Algeria left to play.
Funny bout the US game,Slovenia couldn't come with the foul either after they reviewed the game. Australia got lucky, Denmark came back nice and the French team sounds like a cheap soap opera. I'm willing to send them a dozen Kleenex tissues as a consolation prize.

Marcel, his ruling was it was intentional.

No one knows precisely. The referee isn't saying; FIFA isn't saying. Some sort of foul on the US but nobody can see anything on the replays except possibly a dust up between Bocanegra and a Slovenian defender.
Lots of conjecture that the ref called a phantom foul to make up for a bad call against the Slovenian team that gave the US the direct free kick in the first place.
You sure u've been watching the same tournament?So far I'm positive we haven't even had one ounce of luck!
Cheers,

I watched the second half of the Cameroon v. Denmark game and enjoyed it. Denmark played great defense and were able to capitalize of some great offense opportunities.

Agreed Eric, enjoyed that game.
I've learned the rules of soccer so well, that when a US player gets mugged by 2 SLovenians that its the US players fault-Andy Roddick

Maria, you folks have a right to be proud of your team after today. They did well!
First half was even better. Best match I've seen so far in the World-cup.
I think you mean Italy.

Nope
he means France - they're refusing to train in protest at Anelka being sent home
Italy have got a wee bit of sorting out to do but they're nowhere near chaos

Make that 7-0! (In the time it took me to make that first post they scored AGAIN!)
That puts the Ivory Coast in a HUGE hole for moving on.
