‘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...
The decision on Saturday is especially ironic because the VAR has been ruling out perfectly good goals for micro-offside decisions where the offside player couldn’t possibly have gained any advantage from an elbow, or a shoulder, or a toe being ahead of the ball and yet when a player is running in on goal with the ball at his feet, shielding it from defenders, somehow there’s no advantage being gained in doing that.
