@awilson2525 sorry, but it seems you're a baseball fan, and therefore I don't think you are in a position to make such claims :)

These top comments are pissing me off, cuz awilson2525 removed his comment so I will wonder what awilson said for the rest of my life.

You might want to include that being in an offside position is not penalized on the first touch (only) from a corner kick and goal kick too. These 2 are in addition to the throw-in that you mentioned.

The exact definition of offside is:

A player who is during the pass is closer to the goal line than the ball and the 2nd last defender (including the goalkeeper).

If you want to see extreme examples of an offside trap (for purpose of demonstration) then check the Dutch "total football" team of the 1974 world cup. They would rush up large numbers whenever they anticipated a long pass from the opposition , sometimes leaving as many as 6 opponents offside as a result.

Eh, the Arsenal v Barca footage is not an example of the offside trap. There is no movement from the Arsenal defense. It's offside alright but not because of an implementation of the offside trap.

You seem to be using the terms "offside" and "offside trap" interchangeably.

Its funny that u chose an example of offside trap that didn't work !

Eto'o broke the trap and score the goal

0:17.... No it is wrong. It does not have to be the last defender and the goalkeeper. It can be 2 defenders
