    And it should have been 3-0.

    Not only does Bingham not have possession of the ball on the disallowed goal in the 83rd, but the advancing forward's play doesn't represent dangerous play. The Minnesota gets all ball, follows his initial touch nicely, and puts that ball in the back of the net. A clear goal that could easily have been avoided had Bingham simply gone to ground -- either face first (shielding the ball and forcing the forward to engage in dangerous play to get a touch) or on his side (clearly demonstrating possession with his body).
