But you can legally score with your shoulder where the shirt sleeve is, more offside than the line looks
i love the tech. but i think there should be about 3-5cm buffer.. there's no big advantage here.
And if they add a 5cm buffer you'll just complain when someone's called offside for being off 6cm. You're not fixing the problem, you're moving it.
honestly I'll be fine with that.
Perfect example of why I tink the offside rule should be taken only the foot. The rule is there to stop goal tending. For me if an attacker times their run (which by the way, we celebrate attackers timing their runs as a strikers skill) and starts a foot race from behind the defender, then they should be considered on side. What advantage does Vinicius have here that the goal shouldnt stand, apart from timing his run exceptionally well?
The first thing that happens after a ball is passed, is a foot race. Not a shot. A foot race. So taking offside from the part of the body that can score makes zero sense. The number of goals scored that were not preceded by a foot race or movement of the feet into position, must be close to zero. Therefore the attackers advantage is not that they had a piece of goalscoring body part ahead of the defender, its that they were ahead of them in a race to the ball.
Is this not put forward elsewhere? Does anyone else agree? Feel like im losing my fucking mind.
The defender’s arm is further than any part of Vinicus body. Is it because you cannot legally play the ball with your arm so it’s excluded?
That’s exactly why
Anyone else think the lines should be drawn from the feet?
The problem isn’t the technology, it’s the people making decisions with it having opinions on certain clubs, players, and likely in this case, race. Stamp that shit out of it already, officials need to be held accountable. Yes I’m talking to you Øvrebø you bald fuck.
Ok, then I suppose i don't know the offside rules anymore. The hand doesn't count?
What body parts do count when deciding for an offside?
I've been saying for a while attackers should go for runs leaning thier whole body back as far as they can. It will look very silly but if your feet are the most forward part of your body nothing else can be offside. I know it's hard to get forward momentum running like this and I am joking before I get stupid comments
Because of that, I'm eager to wait new offside rule to be applied asap
What a joke
What u want? It's clearly offside
Change the rule to front foot versus front foot and be done with it
Clear and obvious
As an aside , this rule is stupid. It should be feet not torso. An offensive player leaning forward in anticipation of a pass should never have been grounds for offsides. The rule is absurd as it is currently interpreted.
Understand the point your making, but as a parent who runs the line.
You’re not going to see the feet when directly opposite very easily.
I’m normally quite good with body, but seeing whose feet are further ahead. Fuck that. Feet are tiny across the other side of the pitch.
The rules become the rules for everyone.
What advantage is being gained here? VAR is doing exactly what I feared, changing rules from common-sense (if sometimes incorrect) enforcement to slow motion, pixel-level pedantic nonsense (that they somehow still manage to routinely mess up). Who is happy with this?
so you're telling me this is ok
It's not Vardrid anymore
