I just saw it when it was repeated: it was off-side indeed. Then after all, I think Oz deserved this result

First of all, I totally thrilled that the socceroos are advancing. However, it is worth noting that when kewell scored the equlaizer he was offside. Leading me to the following question (considering the USA game earlier among others through the course of this WC).

Has there ever been a close match that is not ultimately decided by the ref? Seriousl ...[text shortened]... officiating I have ever seen in any sport...ever.

Still...way to go Aussies!!!

That was the first time in my life I've seen a ref make such a huge blunder with the sending off.

See the usa v ghana thread for my reply re reffing decisions.

And because I hate bloody convicts.
looks like you may have slipped down the ladder a little, Darv. and it's the ref who should have been convicted in this case...

Is that the final word? from one camera angle it looked offside, but from another it didn't... has there been any further analysis?
