Looking at the replays from the called off U.S. goal, right as the ball was being kicked Dempsey gave the Slovenian defender a huge shove in the back. It was the reason two Slovenian defenders were covering the guy second from the left in the image above.
That is the only thing that I thought could have been seen as a foul on that play, especially since the whistle was blown so soon, right as the ball was being kicked.
