Well I guess they're consistent
Right, the linesman in our game against Iran had no problem doing it on our 2nd goal, which I think was actually closer than this.MookieBlaylock said:

They're called ARs. Short for Assistant Referees.MookieBlaylock said:

If they think it's offside, they let play continue. Then they raise the flag for offside after the play ends.PatAg said:Right, the linesman in our game against Iran had no problem doing it on our 2nd goal, which I think was actually closer than this.MookieBlaylock said:

They called that guy offside? I assumed it was the other one that wasn't really affecting the play but since they called that on France yesterday they were just following suit...Dre_00 said:

This really goes against the spirit of the rule. Technically, it's offside but when the difference is just inches, there is no advantage gained.Dre_00 said:

Look at the image, only a computer can see that's offside.MookieBlaylock said:
no they do it diff in every game- this one didn't raise the flag and a PK was awarded - they can raise the flag and the play can still continue - play does't stop till the whistle
When they're being that pedantic on offside, one thing they never show is actually when the ball was struck. They can be off on that as well.RealTalk said:This really goes against the spirit of the rule.

Really need to have some common sense when making these decisions.

If they want an exact point to measure, maybe just use feet. Seems way better than some random point on their sleeve.
Yeah, it's any playable surface. So they use the sleeve as a playable surface.Out in Left Field said:

And since it's a body part you can't use .....

What I find hilarious, is that's why VAR was brought in to begin with. To find if a player was offside or not, no grey area. And now it upsets people when a player is a hair offside. You're either offside or not, right? Thats the rule, stick with it.

I think people were upset with obvious missed offside calls, not this.
Yep. College football is the worst. Some games they're stopping it every 5 minutes for pedantic corrections, and other games, they don't look at anything.Agthatbuilds said:Out in Left Field said:young eugene said:

Classic case of give them an inch, they take a mile
Var has made the game worse, not better. Replay, in general, has made all sports worse, not better.

Instead of a 3rd place game, have the 31st and 32nd place teams from this year's competition play the day before the final. Loser is automatically eliminated from qualifying for the next WC.
