Before they call it? That second goal against Ghana was ridiculous! |

That sucks. I was really hoping Ghana would pull an upset.  |

Hey, they called offsides against them once. Isn't that enough?
Ghana seems to be playnig with a lot more heart and desire. The Brazilians just seem to be waltzing around and waiting to flick a pass over the defense. There have been a couple of shots from Ghana that should have gone in. Especially that (mis-)header Dida accidently blocked with his foot. |

It looked like the Brazilian was on the same level as the defensive player. Not offside.
Still wish Ghana could have at least scored one goal after so many attempts. It looked like they were aiming for the goalie, though. |

Dude, what replays were you watching? I just got off the phone with one of my best friends, who happens to be an NCAA official, and he said the call was laughable. I agree. He was waaaaaaaayyyyyyy offside! |

He was far from WAY off-side...
Ghana might have a bit of a complaint, it was a close call... |

Univision's replay.
There is no legitimacy with people who say that he was "waaaaaayyyyy" offside, even if he/she happens to be a NCAA official. At best, it was questionable. In that case, it's up to the ref. |
