Ref Who Disallowed U.S. Goal Will Not Officiate Another World Cup Match

Simply amazing!  This ref not only cost us a victory but also the largest WC comeback ever!  These FIFA refs suck!

The referee who threw out Team USA’s would-be winning goal last week will not officiate another World Cup match anytime soon, FIFA announced Monday.

Mali-born Koman Coulibaly, who disallowed a crucial American goal against Slovenia Friday night, was left off the list of referees for the next two days of matches.

The game ended in a 2-2 tie, rather than a 3-2 American victory that would have marked the biggest World Cup comeback ever.

FIFA officials have been tight-lipped about the controversial call.

“We do not comment on referee decisions,” a spokesperson told The Wall Street Journal.

Coulibaly received a poor rating from FIFA following an expedited review of his performance Saturday, Yahoo! Sports reported.
