If you mean the canceling of the 3rd USA goal in the Slovenia match, then you know the answer by now. No one has been able to defend the call. There just isn't anything on the video which one can use to justify a whistle against the US on that play.
BTW that referee worked as the 4th official in Sunday's match between Italy and New Zealand. It was a 1-1 draw. It is now being reported that he will not work again in the tournament.
