| drbunnig said: This is an image of France's first goal. Pogba looks to be offside when the ball is struck. Then it's a matter of whether he interferes with play. Watching replays it doesn't look like he has too much of an impact on Mandzukic, but my argument would be that him being in the general vicinity of the ball's path would make him active (I don't think this is the law, however). So I probably wouldn't say it's offside going by that, but the law is too open to interpretation. Shouldn't have been a free kick in the first place though. |
no, that white shoe you see right of Pogba is Vida's foot, who is standing behind him, Pogba is wearing bright yellow boots (I can clearly see his feet when zooming into even that low res pic)
from this angle you can see Vida's position: https://clips.clippit.tv/ryabbw/720.mp4
but yes, Pogba is "involved/active" in that play
