That was no handball . I did youth soccer refereeing and it wasn't a handball for 2 reasons: 1. the rule book which obviously these refs never read states there must be a DELIBERATE USE of a hand or arm, to make the call of handball. Secondly, on replay the ball hit Kewell in the torso just below his shoulder. But this is the WC 2010. They must have as many African teams advance as FIFA's cheating can accomplish. Ghana's team motto is (We are 12 who play as one ) with the 12th player being the ref. The USA definitely was the better team in the last WC but Ghana's 12th man carried them through to the next round.
So where is the Aussie Rebaljo? Does he now believe the WC 2010 outcomes when necessary, are decided by the referees which are beholden to FIFA. Why wasn't the miserable excuse of a referee who was probably paid off by gamblers or organized crime which by definition includes FIFA not even required to state which US player committed the phantom foul yesterday. Let me guess. It was the ghost of George Washington wearing a USA unifrom who the illiterate creature from Mali called the foul on ,robbing the USA of the win.Don't hold your breath waiting for FIFA to use instant replay. The top FIFA officials probably heavily bet on these games knowing ,of course, the outcome, before the game starts. Edited by: jwhite96
