It appears at least in England they think all the red cards were thoroughly justified. Although I must take exception to them calling it a match of shame. I thought it was a thoroughly entertaining match and a courageous effort by the Americans, not something to be embarrassed to be a part of at all.

There were 34 fouls, some of them disgraceful. There were three red cards, all of them justified, and three more yellow cards that might have turned the deeper colour. There were two goals, two memorable saves from either goalkeeper, and a match of shame petered out.
