Kane never received the ball before he was fouled, so wasn't deemed to be offside, maybe that's why the pen was given. It's plainly obvious that the so called expert pundits don't seem to grasp this part of the rule as it wasn't apparent when they were players. The question should be whether a foul should be given to a player in an offside position before he receives the ball? I think the answer in this case is yes. What that brings to mind is that if there's that much confusion between so called experts firsty they need replacing and secondly the powers to be need to modify or at v v least clarfy the laws Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balo Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Well that went smooth. Wont be as easy as this next time. After watching Ajax crush RM I would avoid them in the quarter finals. Some very young, talented players there and the coach knows what he's doing. But any team is tough at this stage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also says that the penalty was the incorrect decision. https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11670/11654941/harry-kane-penalty-decision-in-north-london-derby-was-incorrect-says-former-referee-dermot-gallagher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bredbury Blue Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) Spot on Dermie baby! This law was greatly discussed when Fernandinho gave the 2nd penalty away to Schalke recently. Quote: "The second decision was also correctly made on the basis of the Laws of the Game (Law 11 – Offside) which stipulates: “if a player in an offside position is moving towards the ball with the intention of playing the ball and is fouled before playing or attempting to play the ball, or challenging an opponent for the ball, the foul is penalised as it has occurred before the offside offence”. The images...clearly show that a foul is committed inside the box before the Schalke player could even attempt to play the ball and hence such offence must be punished with the awarding of a penalty kick." Fernandinho fouled the player in an offside position before he attempted to play the ball and became active = penalty. Kane was in an offside position but wasn't fouled until attempting to play the ball and active = NO penalty. Lucky barstewards!

I heard it was 10 quid for a pie and a pint at Wembley for the caraboa cup - bet a beer and bratwurst is nothing like that in Germany. A cheaper day out standing and watching in the Bundesliga as I'm reminded regularly by work colleagues who ask 'why do you englishmen put up with the high costs in your Premier league'.

You are being hopefully far to pessimistic.. i'm hoping that given all the unncertanty they wouldnt allow or announce that theyre gonna stage ANYTHING there unless it was safe and ready to rock and roll, and given the budget one presumes they're advised on these things so i'de go the dates stand.

Kloppy poch sarri and i think pep have had a moan about the severity of the english schedule .. my eg is the opposite end of the scale ie no games as opposed to 2 many but it still highlights the problem, poor management by the powers to be.

Bredbury Blue Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 You should have put that to bed by HT as they were rubbish. Subs turned it for Soton; suddenly you looked tired (Alli should have been subbed 15 minutes earlier) and were hanging on. You could see it happening. The pack is closing in.
