basically having to do the offsides himself as his two
colleagues were so dopey they were missing everything. Not
FIFA's finest hour of appointing.

American ( Barreto ? who lined two World Cup Finals) who also
did fine. Archundia's son nearly got the 2010 Final in place of
Howard Webb and perhaps should have done. Archundia had a
cracking tournament and was a first rate referee and although
the Final was extremely challenging for the Referee, due to the
spoiling tactis employed, I think it is generally recognised
that perhaps it wasn't Howard Webb's finest hour.

Yes totally agree about 1990.
The 1994 world cup was my favourite of all time, it was just a
shame that the final was so poor but the best team won.
