offside
by Sourav Dasgupta on Jun 10, 2008 09:07 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

The injured player behind the goal counts as a player on the field and therefore it was not offside...who the hell could have predicted this to be a law!!!!

if the player was taken outside on referee's consent, then it would be offside. but the player went off the pitch on his own, and had the legal right to get back on it without waiting for ref's permission. so it is not offside.

nevertheless, holland will crumble in the quarters or semis as usual.
