KernowRed Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 Not there, but if ball touches Baker[6] on way to Robinson, then its a goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor officiating compounding a poor performance... This is where VAR is needed, poor officiating, officials need to explain there mistakes, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m using example scenarios, not quoting the written word of the laws of the game. You can be offside when the ball goes backwards. As per the rules.

Roe Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 Well you learn something new every day. I always thought you couldn't be offside if the ball didn't go forward but I guess it makes more sense what @Nibor is saying, it's just a scenario that would hardly ever happen. Interesting. Still, terrible defending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hold my hands up and now to your superior knowledge. I always believed (and was sure I’d seen examples in the past) of not being able to be offside if the ball was not played forwards. You are correct and the direction of the ball does not matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 Watching the game, I was wondering how Kalas and Baker allowed Daniel Johnson to get that pass in. The answer appears to be that Baker, not for the first time, fell over. Although Twentyman was praising Johnson on RB afterwards, I didn't think he was that great. Better at arguing with the ref and timewasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
