Most of us learn at a young age to take responsibility for our actions. That lesson obviously didn’t resonate with officials of sporting events as most refuse to admit when they were wrong, even when the whole world knows they were.
Orlando City held a one-goal lead over the Columbus Crew Saturday night late in the second half when referee Silviu Petrescu issued a penalty to Columbus for a push by RJ Allen. Replays showed that Allen made little, if any, contact with Patrick Mullins. Petrescu did not look at the video review monitor himself on the play and it has been heavily criticized for being a poor decision.
