⚽ Trying to figure out that tricky soccer offside rule? FIFAWorldCup
, a player is penalized for offside “at the time the ball is touched or played by one of his teammates.”
This means that every inch of a player’s head, body or feet must be in front of the last defender when the ball is passed to them. If the referee determines that a player is offside, the referee awards an indirect free kick where the offense occurred, including if it is in the player’s own half of the field of play. But the ball must be passed to another player before a goal can be scored. At times, referees will miss a goal scorer from an offside position or disallow a truly deserved goal, which is usually followed by a group of tearful football fans in the stands.
