Lines werent even touching. This wasnt even close offside call. Some people dont even know offside rule, it seems. Its last man standing, not only GK

It’s second to last man, in this case Pope. Still have no real idea why it was given offside, bizzare
I know the offside rule, I’m just questioning if he’s interfering. Give your head a wobble cause the other way round we’d be fuming
It’s still bs because we waited like 20 mins for the call
Never an offside, lucky to still be in the tie!
I’m unsure over the lines, that is a hard call based on the bodies. Taking it that Haaland was in an offside position, it is still a hard call on Man City imo. He stopped Thiaw getting a block, but Wissa was rugby tackling Semenyo anyway.
**2. Offside offence**
A player in an offside position at the moment the ball is played or touched* by a team-mate is only penalised on becoming involved in active play by:
* interfering with play by playing or touching a ball passed or touched by a team-mate or
* **interfering with an opponent by:**
* preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing the opponent’s line of vision or
* challenging an opponent for the ball or
* clearly attempting to play a ball which is close when this action impacts on an opponent or
* **making an obvious action which clearly impacts on the ability of an opponent to play the ball**
the lines are not even correct lmfao? do you not have eyes or is it because the call went in your favor that you don’t care? you can literally see thiaw’s boot is further than the line they drew for him 🤦♂️
It’s objectively correct. I think people are rightly saying it’s fucking daft that we spend our matches watching a fella 100 miles away drawing lines for 5 minutes. If it isn’t an obvious call then just crack on.
If he isn’t interfering with play when he’s stood in the middle of the goal in contact with the defender, I don’t know what is
A player doesn’t only have to have the ball at their feet to be involved in play
Why are they looking at if it’s offside or not and ignoring how haaland held thiaw so he couldn’t block the shot
