Coach just got sent off for his post match tirade.

Ref ends the game after Korea earns a corner. Players and coach not too happy about that. Can't say I blame them.
Congrats Ghana.
Maybe if they had been dangerous on one of the other 12 corners I'd feel bad for themoh no said:

this was almost certainly the case, but if you took a shot and it was deflected out for a corner and then you hear 3 whistles, you'd still be pissed no matter what.LeonardSkinner said:
Having not watched the match, I might offer this: maybe time ran out before the ball went into touch for the corner.
Perhaps the official gave them that leeway time during the attack, and once it failed, he ended the game.
Games should end the same way regardless of the amount of stoppage time. Feel bad for Korea.MookieBlaylock said:
Meh it was a weak shot out of desperation
They were over 10 minutes into stoppage time
They were going on the 12th minute of stoppage time...ref said "I'll give them one more attack"...I get the "unwritten rule" thing 100% but its obvious and understandable why the ref blew the whistle...WolfCall said:Games should end the same way regardless of the amount of stoppage time.

I'd certainly want to see Berhalter go say something. But I wouldn't want him to cross the line into red card territory after the final whistle when you have no recourse and going into our decisive final group stage match.oh no said:
if USMNT was down 1 late, and won a CK right near the minimum announced stoppage time and the ref blew three whistles and didn't let us take it, and Greggg didn't get in the ref's face, I'd be angry at Greggg.
that's kindof the unwritten rule that many assume. I understand why the ref finally ended it, but ref could have ended it earlier on the last clearance by ghana or waited for one more corner to avoid controversy. I'm sure the ghana coaches were yelling to end it because they're over the min 9 or 10 they put up at 90, but then the S Korean coaches are obviously like wtf - why'd you end it there?Mathguy64 said:
So if SK keeps getting corners, are you going to keep letting them take corners?
are we sure this wouldn't be a good thing?TXAggie2011 said:

My daughter and I have just been yelling "Go Pete" every time Dest makes a play for the US.LeonardSkinner said:
I feel like almost every unnaturally blonde player at the WC could be mistaken for Pete Davidson.
