Supporters definitely had us all going in the 2nd half when things were looking up and then when our backs were to the wall.
Nothing is as bad as the swindle in the swamp. The USA Today even called it that. When a national news paper talks about officiating in a college football game, you know the fix was in.
I don't know what the ref called, but it confused a lot of people. The radio announcers thought it was not a goal until the rebound, and never corrected that. I was confused later when I saw that Accam was credited with the goal. Iain and Joe, especially Iain, realized almost immediately that the Accam shot went in. Credit to de Leeuw for following through to be sure. Callens started running immediately, but de Leeuw was quicker and had a better path. Callens paused midway, but not, I think, because he gave up, but because he realized de Leeuw had position on him and that caused a momentary hesitation to figure what was the best course.Second, did the referee call the Chicago goal on Accam's shot? Or only on the rebound? Accam's shot went in, of course, but I don't recall hearing a whistle. Callens basically gave up on the play, which really pissed me off at the time.
Definitely some ref trolling in here with a compilation of a bunch of the missed calls.Excited for this one:

Not related to NYCFC: LOL at everyone shitting on Basti's "heart." Since we are only going based off of one game reviews, may I bring up the 2014 World Cu Final? Please, go on about telling me he has no heart.
I could have sworn I saw the ref give Johnson a yellow card...

Radio also said he got a yellow. But apparently it was just yellow card theater.they announced a yellow card at the stadium but i dont remember hearing or seeing it on TV. Also its not on the match report. Im assuming it was either a mistake or it got rescinded.
It was called so early in the second half (if I recall it was before/around the 60 minute mark?) one of the peanut gallery may have had the sense to recognize the insanity of calling time wasting at that time in that circumstance. I had no indication that it had been revoked and was actually cringing every time SJ held the ball thereafter expecting him to get the boot for a second yellow in what would have caused a fan riot.Radio also said he got a yellow.
