I don't like to argue what the refs call. it was a fantastic penalty kick, with tons of pressure to top it off.

The women's games have been a lot better than then men's games so far. Both semifinals have been so good, though I do feel bad for Canada they aren't getting any calls from this ref.

Yeea... Um just watching Canada vs USA in Women's football.

Must stupid and ridiculous 3rd goal by the USA. Referee's call was just plain stupid. And what the hell is a indirect free kick inside the penalty box anyways? Sigh...

Besides that complain, the game is fun. A lot of goals and big plays. Sinclair hat-trick !

I almost guarantee they will lodge a complaint about the reffing after the game. There have even been a few calls that should have gone US way but didnt. But giving an indirect free kick inside the box is probably the most absurd call I've ever seen. Then giving a handball off it that late basically a gift. Game has been really good otherwise.

This reffing is complete and utter bullshit, enough to make me wonder if the refs are betting on the US or something >.<

The ONLY reason Canada hasn't won the game already is because of complete bullshit call after call by the refs.

Well she has to give the freekick because the keeper didnt release it from her hands in time. You can get away with that if you put it down, that was a pretty elementary mistake. But the Pen was just garbage.

yes and delay of game happened because she was holding on to the ball to long. Wasting time is fine, everyone does it but you push the rules to do it. Not break them :p. (example you drop the ball to your feet you squeeze an extra few seconds out)

Ususally they are pretty lenient about it the first few times its done and then they just card the keeper if its to much and you just restart. But they can certainly give that indirect free kick if they want, its rare to see though. Personally I dont mind it, the mens game could use some of that.

Also no one is going to lodge any complaints. Its bad reffing but there have been far worse travesties.

ummm you almost never see or give a free kick inside the box... especially in an elimination game at 75 Minutes.

Not really, maybe not for that particular offense. Mostly because keepers arent dumb enough to get caught doing it.


But indirect free kicks inside the box occur often enough.
