#5 U.S.A vs Slovenia (2010)
The United States of America have seen more than once, a crucial decision by the referee going against them in the World Cup. They were set to become the first team in World Cup history to make a comeback and win the game 3-2 after a 2-0 deficit.
Shortly after equalising, in the 85th minute of the game, Donovan’s curling free kick met midfielder Maurice Edu’s run who put the ball into the net, giving US a late 3-2 lead.
The lead though never was recorded as Malian referee Koman Coulibaly blew the play dead for an unknown reason.
The linesman's flag stayed down, and FIFA never came out with the report.
