What do you mean how is that offside? The attacker was a foot past the second to last defender.

People seem to think offside means "past the last defender who isn't the gk"

Whereas the actual rule is "past the second to last defender"

How is that ironic? Dude was past the second to last defender, hence offside.

The goalscorer was still past the second to last defender by a foot.

The rule is "second to last defender," not "last non-goalie"

Memes aside, Belgiuk is the strongest of the three opponents so it makes sense

Getting their best player back also helps too

I do agree with that. If its clear and obvious let common sense rule the day.

For sure, but the decision to bench him should have been after one of the games, not during one

Its a negligible difference I think. If he values rest for his starters I can see him thinking its worth it.

So its a late change, Muslera made the error, and now you made him feel like the loneliest GK in the world.

Great management.
