  • @buccos2324 .. unless the defending team has people on the line as well :)

  • The ball is in play following a corner kick when it is kicked and moves. Therefore, doesn't the corner kick end once the ball is in play (kicked and moves). So, the player at 0:12 is definitely offside. If he is off the field, he is measured as on the goal line for purposes of offside.

  • Bad angle to view it from but if the Attacker A was goal side of the ball when the Attacker B bump passed it back then attacker A was unquestionably offsides. However I think that was probably one of those calls you would have to see in replay to catch correctly. If you called that in a live game I think it would be 50/50 on whether you would get it right when they wound back the replay on you. Tough call.

  • Only the keeper on the post. This places the corner kicker in offside position (even with last defender), he is ahead of ball on pass back to him. Offside on pass.

  • Field defender on post, GK at edge of Goal Area, places the initial corner kicker in offside position. He is in front of ball on pass back. Offside! AR has to pay attention to that goal keeper so he lines up on the second to last defender - in this instance the goal keeper.

  • I am a Ref, the third touch (corner to player, player stops it, corner taker kicks again) is offside

  • Nope, I'm wrong. I wasn't thinking about the second touch, which was certainly offside. What I can't figure out is what advantage they were trying to get from doing this. Doesn't make any sense to me.

  • Sorry...you're all wrong. Check the LOTG...there's no offside from a corner kick.

  • Definitely a missed offside there

  • The guy who took the first kick was in FRONT of the ball, making him offside. I would have called that if I was the AR in that game.
