Watch the one Atletico got...His arms are down running and it came off him from like 20cm, never a penalty.

You can be offside if the ball is played backwards, just checked.
Deflects off a sporting player and his hand is the real issue.
They really werent. It was a very boring game with no chances.Beyond that Marseille were giving us a tough old time until they went down a man.
I read 2:1 in Kicker app
Knew as soon as I saw our celebrations that it would be ruled out. The powers that be don't like authentic moments.I just can't believe ANY of us were STUPID enough to celebrate that goal... I punched the air with pure, unadulterated joy.... but more fool me.... Shoulda waited for fucking VAR to decide whether I'm allowed to BE HAPPY or not!
A fucking MOMENT if happiness.... ripped away... Nah, fuck that, how DARE anyone enjoy ANY brief moment of happiness in this fucking SHITSHOW world we live in right now!
Of COURSE we should have that happiness ripped out of our hands.... How DARE we be happy any more!! What's the fucking point?
Tell you what.... Give the cunts what they want...
Imgine a stadium who greet a last minute 'winning' goal with ABSOLUTE SILENCE?
Let Sky try and sell THAT product to the world!
But hey, if that's what they want, that's what they'll get...
You tell us when we're 'allowed' to be happy, and we'll oblige.... just give us the nod, ok?
Fucking killjoy cunts!
So how were we robbed?
Alice klaaa
Drama sellsAs fake as the WWE Football these days, knew that during the Leicester title season. They make these kinds decisions to enhance the "product"
Happens in the NBA
They never show you when they freeze it, just a freeze frame of what they want you to seeDid they freeze that exactly when the ball was played as well?
So, with GD, we only need a draw…Table now :
Points
8 ............Spurs (GD +1)
7.............Sporting (GD 0)
7.............Frankfurt (GD - 2)
6............. Marseille (GD +1)
Games to Play :
Marseille v Spurs
Sporting v Frankfurt
Going to be tense at both matches
If you block a ball, you are deliberately playing the ball. Where do you draw the line. If a player puts out his leg and the ball touches his leg is that deliberate? If you want to pass the ball to someone and you slip and pass the ball to someone in an offside position who scores, does that count because it wasn't deliberate? The defender causes the ball to change direction into the path of Kane. He went to block the cross deliberately. His action gave the desired result. If the defender had not touched the ball, the ball would have went behind Kane.Come on, he doesn't have superman reflexes. The ball was headed off his foot.
I think the offsides call was BS but that was never a deliberate play by the defender.
I don't think the rules even have a clause for that exact occurrence. They've decided that at the moment the ball was played, Kane's knee is one micron ahead of Royal's head, and that's it.i don't understand the rules?

if he heads it along the path of blue arrow then i think that is off side.
if he heads it backwards, cannoning off the defender into kane's path along the path of the yellow arrows, i thought that wasn't off side
From the freeze frame, it looks like Kane is behind both Emerson and the ball, at worst he is level.Emerson doesn't matter at all. It's where the ball is and where Kane is.
Fractional offsides are so so dumb. Its arbitrary by the ref who draws it.
I believe Head-to-Head takes precedent over GD actually. But either way a draw will do it.
Like I said before the rules are being confused that much and now clarified by fucking idiots who don't even understand them themselves!!This woman on the US broadcast says that they are using automated offside technology that uses the lines from the time Emerson touches the ball. Could have sworn the rule is from the moment it leaves his head?
