The SA World Cup saw a number of, if no the most in history, high-profile wrong decisions in the tournament such as the failure to award England a goal against Germany when Frank Lampard's shot hit the crossbar and went over the goalline and the missed offside on Carlos Tevez's goal for Argentina against Mexico.
