Another fabulous game
Mbappe should score that tbh
Offside surely

I can’t understand that decision unless there was a Spain player offscreen playing him on.
― Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Sunday, 10 October 2021 20:28 (two years ago) link
i thought so, as well. but it almost looked like a spanish player touched it before it got to mbappe, which would make it on, i guess?

He’s still off when the ball was played unless he’s not interfering with play,

Goal should be ruled offside, hes off and its not a new phase ffs

so reading and watching examples of this kind of play, it looks like this is an attacker (mbappe) gaining an advantage due to the ball deflecting off an opponent (garcia):
gaining an advantage by playing the ball or interfering with an opponent when it has:* rebounded or been deflected off the goalpost, crossbar, match official or an opponent* been deliberately saved by any opponent
regardless whether it deflected off garcia, it would still be offside, because garcia wasn't deliberately playing the ball. and apparently, a lot of refs call this offside often.
however, it's not offside if the opponent (garcia) deliberately plays the ball:
A player in an offside position receiving the ball from an opponent who deliberately plays the ball, including by deliberate handball, is not considered to have gained an advantage, unless it was a deliberate save by any opponent.
so, the ref must've thought garcia deliberately played the ball. his slide was intended to play the ball, but he never reached it enough to intercept and instead it was deflected, which would make it an offside, in my view.
there should be a clause added in the IFAB that a deliberate play of the ball means the opponent has possession of the ball, so it's not merely the opponent's intention to play the ball, and that way all deflections should be ruled offside

this is insane. i feel bad for spain

Agree with that take
Spurs got the benefit of similar vs lfc a few years back and it shouldve been tidied up after that
Mbappe is offside and interfering with play its a simple call

Channel 4 showing the England games has been a roaring success I must say.

Southgate was a mediocre to absolute shite flop of a club manager. But failing upwards is the English style, so fair enough. It looks like his lucky run has ended now though.
