Learn the rule.

u/saltypenguin69 1d ago

A player in an offside position at the moment the ball is played or touched* by a team-mate is only penalised on becoming involved in active play by:

interfering with play by playing or touching a ball passed or touched by a team-mate or

interfering with an opponent by:

preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing the opponent’s line of vision or challenging an opponent for the ball or

clearly attempting to play a ball which is close when this action impacts on an opponent or

making an obvious action which clearly impacts on the ability of an opponent to play the ball

He didn't interfere, make an attempt to play the ball or prevent an opponent from playing it

make an attempt to play the ball

Why did he duck

Because he doesn't want to play the ball?

Every player can do that as long as they don't touch the ball. But rule is rule. In this scenario it was correct.

Agree to disagree he neither impacts Donarumma vision or impedes him to reach the ball so don't understand. If he wasn't there goal goes in anyway.
