@hashtagutd: WAIT! Is that right? 🤔 #WomensFootball #referee #ref #football #Soccer

Liam :

How do people not know the laws of the game? You can’t be offside in your own half, but she wasn’t in her own half when the ball was kicked to her.

donttalktoducks :

Correct call. Offside. Easy when you know the laws of the game.

Dave :

Great call from the Lino, however freekick was taken from the wrong place

Refs Need Love Too :

Great call!!!

Mark Pinnock :

Right call, wrong location for free kick

Phil Hendy :

lino spot on So many not knowing the laws

Reggie Cash 💰 :

The person shouting at the AR was so confident too 😂😂😂

Zack Masters :

lino correct as she kicked the ball the receiving player is in the opposite half

Thatguythatsaidthatthing :

It doesn’t matter where you are when you receive the ball - only where you are when your teammate plays it to you

craft553y :

And this is from a football club's official account, btw

Harry Hiscock :

I mean she’s quite clearly offside

danfridgemagnet :

Correct call. She was offside AT THE TIME THE BALL WAS PLAYED. Regardless of the fact she ran into her own half afterwards SHE IS STILL OFFSIDE. Free kick to be taken AT THE POINT SHE INTERFERED WITH PLAY i.e. when she touched the ball.

Jay99T :

You can't be offside in your own half if the ball is played when you are in your own half, if you are in the oppositions half when the ball is played and come get the ball in your own half, you are offside. The Freekick should be taken at the earliest point of interference, which could be when the run starts to interfere with a defender or when the offside player touches the ball.

Kane Sullivan :

yeah. that's the right call. at the moment the ball was kicked she was in an offside position. it then became validated when she touched the ball - hence why the indirect free kick was taken on the other side of the halfway line. linesman was bang on.

Rhys “The Tik Tok” Referee :

Spot on

🐍Matt.Ed 🫡 :

Linesman is correct with the current rules. The restart is not from where the offside line was it’s from where the ball was first touched by the one who was offside

lucaschambers13 :

No that’s right. They came from an offside position and then the free-kick was taken where the offence was taken (where she touched the ball)

Ben Baxter Buckley :

She was offside and ran back into her own half so Lino 100% right 😅✅

simplyiptv3 :

she was offside in the opponents half when the keeper kicked the ball so OFFSIDE ... its not hard to work out 🙄

Paul Williams286 :

She ran from an offside position when the ball was played. Great call.

Jack :

Paul :

offside is judged when the ball is played not when the ball is received..

Purple Designs :

Being in an offside position isn't breaking the law of the game. You only break the law when you play for the ball. She played for the ball in her own half. That's the moment she broke the rule, and that's where you place the ball.

ajpetrina :

Had this happen on a goal kick. Attacker was in the attacking side clearly offside when the ball was kicked. She came back and was the first to touch the ball halfway between the 18 and midfield. Free kick awarded at the spot of the touch.

SundayRef :

It’s a great call!
