I was at the USA - Bosnia game yesterday - I got a bad vibe of the Ref at half-time - anyone else? It made the victory more impressive.

Edit 1 -- yes the lack of yellow cards to control the game was really bad too.

I am overjoyed...BUT...just want to get this off my chest -- at halftime people were happy to be up 1 - 0 but I kept telling people "we need an insurance goal -- the Ref is so bad and clearly biased and against us!"

Those watching on TV -- did you feel the same (before the Red Card)?

And sure enough -- the Balogun Red Card happened. Bosnia tying the game 1 - 1 and knocking us out on penalties felt like the script.

But even before that -- we were losing most of the 50 50 calls. I think what it could have been is that the Ref was going out of this way to prove that he is not influenced by the home crowd?

If I were neutral and did not know who's at home, you would have thought that Bosnia was the home team.

The silver lining is that we faced adversiy and came through.

USA all the way.
