Well, another sad referring that everyone has clearly seen, as Robert Rossetti blows the clear "offsides" on Tevez.

From then on, that terrible non call clearly unnerved Mexico, as Osorio's brutal error (clearly lead to Higuain's 4th easy goal of the World Cup) showed there. It was the worst defensive error of the tournament by far, as someone with Osorio's experience should never make (or anyone at this level).

At least Tevez's third goal was a pure strike of glory, as it stands as the best goal of the tournament for sure (though Luis Suarez's effort yesterday really can contend with it because of when he scored it in the match, when it was 1-1 with South Korea instead of a comfortable 2-0 lead).

Carlos Tevez, no question the Man of the Match, although his first goal was allowed thanks to Real Man of the Match, Mr. Robert Rossetti.
The full review.
