Erm. Who saw the women's soccer final Japan vs. US?

They were showing the highlights of the goal. They showed Carly Lloyd's two goals, and then they said, "And then it was up to Hope" and showed a ball coming toward the US goal in slow motion, Hope is screaming at her defender who had her arms wrapped around the Japanese player who was ready to head the ball in. Does anyone know if that foul was called? It was just crazy obvious.

Should have been, but wasn't. That's the way it goes. The ref gets some right, gets some wrong, doesn't see some at all.
