Referee allows blatantly offside goal, anger ensues

Controversy brewed in the Argentinean Primera Division this weekend when Colon were awarded a highly dubious goal when visiting San Lorenzo.

The Colon penetration (sorry) occurred in the 68th minute, when the linesman flagged for offside. Colon's Federico Higuain whipped in a cross regardless, which Ariel Garce harmlessly tapped into the net, assuming play had stopped. However, the ref completely ignored the linesman and the inactivity of most of the players deeming the Colon blast (sorry again) to be valid, bringing the score to 1-1.

Cue a surprised Garce, angry fans, intimidated officials and (crap) colon jokes from bloggers who should know better.
