Nope - they got it right, and then the ref made a good call to issue a yellow on a dive by the German.
The refs and their assistants have been solid so far in all of the games. They called a PK for a handball in the box that decided the game for Ghana this morning (1-0 final), but it was for an intentional handball in the box. It was a dumb play by the defender, but a good call by the ref.

Klose - 28'
Beautiful header. Hopefully the tournament is starting to open up a little bit - or maybe this is just one of the customary German ass-beatings in the group stage.

Should be 3-0 now if not for a chickenshit attempt at a finish and a nice clearance by the Aussie back.

Germany's movement in the attacking half of the field is beautiful to watch. What I wish the USA would have done better yesterday.

And... we don't play that way...
Don't mean to be a douce... but a lot of you... (Not you matcar necessarily)... evaluate this like you would club matches.
The world cup isn't that.
These are (from various countries, at various levels) "dream teams"
It's not the same as club cup games... at all.
Anyway... don't mean to be a dick, but, the US played well yesterday... considering the opponent, tactics and desired outcome... we got past the best team in our group with a point... doesn't mean we're gonna approach slovenia the same way.
But, this isn't Barca vs Real Madrid... or even ManU against Inter.... this is national play.... not Euro club play.
