The red was strange. I thought the ref was forced into it because the Ecuadorian player made that stupid little kick which had to be punished with a yellow, but he was being fouled pretty badly by the US on that run. A second yellow meant a red, which would be a pretty unfair turn of events for that sequence.

Or maybe that's just the twisted logic of an Italian soccer fan.
