I'm saying that the referee should have called two PKs on the Mexican team, but neither was called.

Also, he failed to penalize a lot of fouls on both sides, one of which led to Mexico's second goal, and one that led to Korea's only goal.

That was the best game of soccer I've seen in a long time.

On a side note, what happens if Sweden beats Mexico on Wednesday?

It will be a total sweep with an unconditional victory. :D Seeing how Germany won. :evil: (Soooo bogus in my opinion. Ref let time go on too long)
Here is a chart depicting possible outcomes...
V=victory T= Tie L=loss (Bolded team is the with the corresponding result.)
Mex vs Swd: V + Ger vs Kor: V = 1st Mex 2nd Ger
Mex vs Swd: V + Ger vs Kor: T = 1st Mex 2nd Ger
Mex vs Swd: V + Ger vs Kor: D = 1st Mex 2nd Ger/Swd/Kor (Most goals overall wins)
Mex vs Swd: T + Ger vs Kor: T = 1st Mex 2nd Ger/Swd (Most goals overall wins)
Mex vs Swd: T + Ger vs Kor: D = 1st Mex 2nd Swd
Mex vs Swd: D + Ger vs Kor: T = 1st Mex/Swd 2nd Mex/Swd
Mex vs Swd: D + Ger vs Kor: D = 1st Mex/Swd 2nd Mex/Swd
Mex vs Swd: D + Ger vs Kor: V = 1st Mex/Swd/Ger(Yikes Most goals overall wins) 2nd Mex/Swd/Ger (Runnerup most goals overall wins. If still tied it goes to team with less goals scored against them.)
In other words... Korea could make or break the end results. :|
