The offside was false, but that wasn't the ref's fault. And it's not like South Korea didn't deserve to win, they played pretty good, in the end better than Italy.
In every WC there are wrong decisions. Like how Belgium was defeated by Turkey.

No they don't. All I've heard this World Cup from all of my Soccer mates (English, Serbian, Croatian, Australian, Korean, Japanese) is that this has been the worst World Cup when it comes to reffing!
The Argentinans and French said the same thing about the refs as well. France were robbed of a goal, and in a World Cup, these mistakes shouldn't be made. They should have a video referee to replay the point for very close calls.
ANd if a goal is a goal, of course people are gonna complain (especially considering that Italy had 2 disallowed goals when against Croatia, one disallowed against Mexico, and one "potential goal" disallowed against Korea). And a whole lot of bs rulings!
And this happened so much to the Italians, and they were ALL goals. If you looked @ the replays correctly.
It's been said by many (even the non Italians) that Italy has had the worst luck this World Cup when it comes to the refs, and I agree. Especially putting an Equadorian Coach for Korea v Italy.
And for FIFA to apologise to the world about the ref for Croatia vs Italy (on Italy's behalf), well there's gotta be something wrong. Oh and they kicked that referee out of the World Cup.
Also I think Italy played MUCH better than Korea in the first half. Considering they were IN Korea and the crowd was booing Italy every time they got the ball!
2nd half Korea were desperate so they kept attacking in hope for a goal, and eventually got it. And I think they had the better 2nd half.
PS There are mistakes made, but to Italy, there were FAR too many
