offside rule (simple because there are some expetions)
A player is in an offside position if, when the ball is played by a team-mate, they are nearer to the opposition’s goal line than both the ball and the second last opponent.

btw. This was not an offside as the slow motion showed.

It’s the 1972 Gold Medal Basketball game all over again.

Thank you for the information.

Can we appeal?

P.S.

I’m listening to the game in Spanish. The announcers get very excited as Latins do and begin screaming; therefore, it is sometimes hard to understand what they are screaming about.

Thank you so much for your explanation…

“btw. This was not an offside as the slow motion showed.”

Yes, another freeper pointed that out. It really angered me as well as others.

My best regards to you.
