Okay, I know what the offiside rule is but is the picture below considered an offside?
Hernandez's head was behind the last defender but his legs and body weren't. I know if a leg was behind, it's a definite offside but the head?
Commentator did mention that what causes a player to be offside is that a part of body that can score a goal is behind the last defender. What if someone scores with his arse cheek?
Also, we saw this in the 2008 European competition.
There is no doubt van Nistelrooy was behind nine Italian outfield players but he wasn't offside because he was played onside by the defender laying outside the pitch, beside the goal.
Is this all just luck to Chelsea and Netherlands or what?
