nope

All kidding aside, I did miss the first 12, and was shocked when my kid told me it was 2-2. He offered to rewind and rewatch it with me.

VAR

are you saying they got it wrong?

Tottenham player makes a backpass that deflects off a City player who isn't playing the ball (isn't even facing goal). To me that doesn't put Aguero offside. Bullshit.

Sadly, I think that's the rule. Playing the ball is the definition for whether a defender has broken up an offside pass, but any touch off an offensive player counts.

COME ON YOU FUCKING SPURS

Im in no way a lifelong fan, but I arbitrarily picked Spurs as my PL team to follow when NBC announced they would be carrying the league.

Insane to see them go from where they were at that time (Summer Bale was a question mark) to playing a CL semi final in Europe’s newest and most beautiful stadium. What a crazy path they’ve had in such a short time.

I follow four sports teams: NYCFC, Quakes, SJ Sharks and Spurs. I only know pain and was a stoppage time VAR reversal away from walking away from sports for good lol

I understand you’re upset but the rules clearly state that’s offside.

A player in an offside position at the moment the ball is played or touched by a team-mate

Touched is enough.
