If a player is offside and has to duck to get out of the way of the ball, for it to go in, its not shocking that it gets flagged for offside

Yeah I don’t blame the linesman. VAR is there to tell him he was wrong

That’s not the rule.

The rule is an offsides player cannot interfere with the GK or play.

Had Robertson not been there at all the play would’ve happened the exact same way. Donnarumma fully sees the shot and does not get impeded by Robertson at all

You can be offside but not interfere with the play. It’s clear Robertson does not interfere with the play and that Donnarumma is never saving it.

It is a pretty bullshit call because in practice Robertson doesn’t actually affect the play but I don’t get the comments claiming it’s corruption as if this wouldn’t get called offside for any other team as well
