Actually, they did not call offside. They called the US player for dangerous play by diving for the header with the goalie. (You could see the asst ref making a motion lowering his head when making the call). With that said, the call was preposterous.

anyone see that if the US wins their first game of the second round they will play either Mexico or Costa Rica?? That means they have a great chance, because they have shown well against those teams, to get to the final. It looks like a pretty darn good chance that a CONCACAF team will at least make it to the final.

Anyone watch the game today?

Was I the only one who was kind of bored, the pace was really slow.

Edit: Nevermind, just saw the thread for it.
