I find a lot of people understand the basic, most common scenario, but don't realize the part about the ball being onside if two players have moved past the opposition. I've seen so many cases (even a coach recently on the MLS, if you can believe it) of people pointing to the last defender when a pass is made to a teammate behind or in line the ball. Anyway, great explanation.

Thank you! This video really helped me! It's probably the best explained video I've come across.😁

This video is a gem! I've stryggled to understand this as part of a football loving family all my life. And none of them could explain it to me!

Perfect explanation. Clear, comprehensive, and above all, CORRECT. Thanks. The only video on the topic that does the job!

Needed a refresh going into my next season for myself and my teammates, this helped me remember it all, cheers!

Great explanation, be good mention about deflections from a defending player or the goal posts i.e. if a ball gets passed to a player that's in an offside position but the pass is deflected or hits a defender on the way past. or a shot is deflected off the goal post to a player in an offside position. these are the kind of questions my 10yr old son is asking me.🤣 or if a defender plays it back to the goal keeper and the ball is intercepted by a player in an offside position.

definitely a great explanation, unlike a lot of videos you got right in there with the second to last defender, too many overlook that. kudos

This is the best explanatory video of offsides I've seen yet. Thank you!

This was the best explanation I've found so far! Our son has been playing soccer for a few years now, but just hit the age that they started calling offsides, and I realized that I actually had no idea what the ruling was! Quick question, though - in the last scenario where the attacker is behind the two defenders, are they still offsides if the ball is passed and they get in front of the defenders before they receive the ball? Or is the offsides called based on where they were at the time the ball is passed?

@CatalanSoccer

11 ай бұрын

Great question! It’s based on their exact position at the exact time the ball is played. It actually happens quality a lot where a defender drops back towards their own goal, so by the time the ball arrives to an attacking player they LOOK onside. But because they were in an offside position at the time the ball was played, it’s still offside.

This is the best explanation and very easy to understand!!

Finally I get it (I think). Best explication so far!

Best explanation on YT .. Thank you for the good work.

great explanation. I've been watching 10 years of youth soccer. I seriously think that all levels should do away with this rule and replace it with something much simpler (just to keep an attacker from basically 'camping out' at the opposing goal). Why? I think like you covered around 7:10, these line judges cannot accurately watch a) where the attacking player was exactly when b) the pass was released, so they flub the call routinely. And as a parent, I can only suspect they flubbed it, without instant replay I can't be certain. But it's frequently all so close that there was nothing obvious about it and they should have just let the play continue. Or call it when it's obvious--but a lot of refs like to be a part of the show and will call it when it's super close and not obvious. If my kid's team lost b/c of some close uncalled situations, I'd honestly have no prob with it since I think it's basically a stupid rule.

This is exactly I don't like soccer/hockey rules especially when you have the faster team with fastest players that other teams can't keep up & football offsides is way different

Thank you for specifying that you can move offsides when the ball is played. No other video mentions this, but it's so common.

Thank you for your feedback! Really appreciate that! With a deflection, if the ball is intentionally played by a teammate and then takes a deflection off an opponent then it would still be offside. If the ball is intentionally passed by a defender then it would be onside.

A very good explanation, but as it always is with this law, there are many things unmentioned in the video. One big thing is the deliberate play froma defender versus a deflection/save. The other big thing is what happens when a defender goes off the field, outside the lines. But I know this is for kids and these situations happen rarely, so yeah, good job.

Really usefull easy to follow guide. Just one question. @2:35 the example of the ball becomming the offside line and the attacking player passes back, why is that not offiside? Where does it state that in the 11.1 or 11.2 (or elsewhere)? Not being awakward but just trying to understand as I lineman kids football but have had to learn the offside rule as I have never really played. Thanks in advance of any answers.

@CatalanSoccer

Жыл бұрын

Good question. The player passing the ball, once they have released the ball would no longer be interfering with play. So technically being in an offside position but not close enough to the ball to interfere with the play or the goalkeeper.

What about if the passing player is at the middle line of the field and passes to an attacking player between the last defender (goalie) and second to last defender? Is that onside or offside?

The place that the ball is played from doesn’t play a part in the decision in that case. The attacking player would be offside unless they were also in their own half when the ball was played! Hope that helps

If the ball is just booted midline not to a player but an attacker is in offside position temporarily, but ball goes to defender at same time offside player gets back onside behind defender, should it be called? if defender is now making him onside and ball is ahead seems like player is now onside. Its like slight involvement in play, but attacker has hesitated to get back onside. Any ideas?

When passing to an attacker up field from behind the half is it only offsides when there is only 1 defender (Goalie) 1:40-1:47?

Can you do a tutorial on a corner kick? If the kicker kicks the ball and he received it back?

It depends if he makes a move towards the ball and interferes with play. Is he affecting a goalkeeper or defenders view, is he actively trying to play the ball? If he leaves the ball and makes no attempt to play it then he can be excluded from the offside.

Thx this helps alot

What if you are in an offside position when the ball is passed behind the last defender to a teammate who started onside but has moved behind the defender to receive the ball. Assuming you haven't been involved with the ball or haven't shielded any defenders, can you quickly get back onside and then receive a pass from the teammate that is behind the last defender? When I say get back onside, does that mean the player has to retreat behind the last defender or just the ball? Are there any other weird scenarios where a player can be offside and get back onside such as a shot?
