That's the thing, it wasn't called offsides after all. In fact, per Donovan, nobody knows what the call was. Grant Wahl at SI says it was Edu, but that can't be the case since Edu literally didn't touch a soul in route to scoring the goal.

There's a replay on yahoo.com's front page that shows the play from seventeen different angles, and the linesman's flag never goes up, so the linesman had nothing to do with the play. The angle from behind the play that shows the ref shows he's blowing his whistle before Edu even touches the ball. I think FIFA should definitely be opening an invesigation of this - this is way more egregious than the Ireland-France Henry handball incident.
