Sounds to me like the coach may have had a legitimate complaint. He didn't act properly, though.

These officials ended up in a bad situation, quite possibly of their own making. Coach probably saw a lot of contact let go that was called a foul earlier in the game.

If the officials call a foul here, they have not "dictated the outcome of the game". The player that fouled may have had a hand in it, so to speak, but not the officials.
