FIFA Match Officiating a Disgrace...

I wonder how the FIFA won't release their death grip on the traditional refereeing, whose honest mistakes are changing the course of the entire world cup. We've seen many, many mistakes; England's goal against Germany, Brazil's double handball ending in a goal scored... nothing too far out of the ordinary.
But seeing Italian referee Roberto Rosetti admit to the Mexican players because he knew that the goal scored seconds earlier by the Argentinians was an offside play, and apologize to them because the FIFA wouldn't allow him to change his decision...
Seeing this and how players earn free kicks, penalties and get their rivals booked or sent off by sheer drama school acting at this level of the game is just something that I can't understand...

Get video refereeing and a clean game for everyone.
