So the US goalie moved the goal so it doesn't count? How does that work?

Ideally, the referees should've noticed the goalposts had been knocked slightly ajar and immediately stopped the play. Seems nobody noticed until after the goal was scored. If the goalposts are off, then no goal.

Lol if that is the reason. That wouldn't even have affected the goal, but if that is true, why aren't the goals bolted down then?

Because you will die or break bones crashing into a piece of metal that doesn't move. That's why they have the nets held in place, but enough pressure and it goes off the moorings.

Dutch commentator thought that was the case. That or it hit the bar.

Can't this kind of ruling be abused?
