Does he play the ball or does it hit him?

Looked to me like he came in and won the tackle. Was a deliberate action.

We will see at HT. For me hes in an offside position and I im sure the "action" has to be a pass but theyll clear that up id of thought.

 

[omnomnom]

Thats a booking for a dive all day. Hes got away with that.

Looks like weve gone back to kicking the ball away being ok.

 

[explicit4u]

Blatant booking completely missed by the ref


Zinchenko quietly having a stinker, misplaced so many easy passes.

 

[bingham67]

This has 0-0 all over it so far

 

[omnomnom]

Love Everton playing around the back to just hoof it back to Arsenal. Outstanding Dyche ball.

 

[McBain]

Hope none of the Arsenal players are considering going into boxing after their playing days are over

Its pathetic. 4 or 5 times now theyve gone to ground like that.

How can VAR always seem to get it wrong

 

[Participant]

Boring game and Everton are dreadful.

 

[CliffyG]

That looks like a deliberate attempt to play the ball from Beto. He moved his foot to intercept.

[explicit4u]

Deliberate to you and me and deliberate in the law is very different. As much as I believe that shouldn't count as offside, according to the rules VAR have got that right.

Law 11 - Offside: ‘deliberate play’ guidelines clarified | IFAB

www.theifab.com

The following criteria should be used, as appropriate, as indicators that a player was in control of the ball and, as a result, ‘deliberately played’ the ball:

• The ball travelled from distance and the player had a clear view of it
• The ball was not moving quickly
• The direction of the ball was not unexpected
• The player had time to coordinate their body movement, i.e. it was not a case of instinctive stretching or jumping, or a movement that achieved limited contact/control
• A ball moving on the ground is easier to play than a ball in the air

 

[CliffyG]

He has to make a pass.

Its offside.

I'm sure they said deliberate action. Regardless that's pretty ridiculous really. If he hadn't touched the ball it would have gone to the Arsenal player who was onside.

This has got an Everton 1-0 smash and grab all over it

 

[CliffyG]

Need Jesus on to mix it up a bit.

You really don’t have much faith in your team do you?

He's such a negative Nancy.

Eddie still has less touches than Martinelli. Get him off.

 

[Basill]

Eddie is not good enough for a top 10 team, it's the only position Arsenal lack right now

Because of the person making the decision
