I don’t know about the Belgium one but for this I would presume that Griezmann was offside when it was initially played and still influenced play, with the defender needing to stop the play getting to him. So it’s offside in the first instance and the bit where the defender gets the ball occurs once play is already ruled to be halted. |
If you have to 'presume' that means you weren't actually watching (or at least paying attention). I was watching and Griezmann literally just stood still well out of the way of any defender until they touched it. All the aftermatch analysts all agreed it was a poor call from the officials too.
