***The Official Fifa 10 Thread***

Think you need to re-read the offside rule ;)

Once the player with the ball passes the last defender he in effect becomes the last defender with regards to the offside rule - no real easy way to explain that - so he can pass forward validily only if the receiving player was behind him (or in line) when the ball was played...

EDIT: And in real-life a ST rarely gives up an opportunity to score within the box...

Don't get me wrong, I haven't lost due to this it's been more than one goal on each occasion I have lost by. But if both players are past the last defender, how can a forward pass be made from one to the other and it not be offside when the receiving player is meant to be level with the last defender? Maybe I am describing it wrong but players never pass this way in real matches.

They are ranked I believe, they have all yielded points, or lost them more often... Just standard head to head matches if that's the same.

Those posts make no sense to me and do not explain the off side rule.

If two players are passed the line of defence and player 1 passes to player 2 in any manner it will be offside.
 
There have to be two opposition players between the attacker and the goal in order for that player to be onside (usually defender and goalkeeper, can be two defenders however)

UNLESS the attacker is passed to by another attacker who is in front of him, then he is always onside it doesn't matter what direction the pass is going.

If the ball is passed by the defender to the attacker then there is no offside.

I might just be restating what you two said, but I didn't really understand either of your posts :p
 
Well that has sent me into a rage, I have had goals disallowed on Fifa during such situations of being passed the defence and playing the ball back to the second striker and it being off.
 
How the heck do you guys play a football game and not know the offside rule properly - any of you on PSN fancy a game later ;):p

Are you absolutely positive? Just saying because I have never seen that in any of the last 3 Fifas.

Yep 100%, Martin Tyler always says it was clearly offside, I admit it hasn't happened YET in 10, but in 09 it happened in one of the last games I played against a mate at work, his defence was at sea and I was at the by line in the box and passed to my player on the inside edge of box and he smashed it home but was ruled offside.
 
Was the player offside for a previous pass?

Lets say Player C is offside when Player B passes to Player A, Player A then crosses to Player C who is now onside and scores, the goal would still be disallowed for offside from the previous pass as Player C has become active (Had Player A crossed to Player D who was at no point offside then the goal would have stood because Player C would have been deemed inactive).
 
About 50% of the goals we scored in 09 Club have been passing the ball between STs after passing the defence to ensure it lured the GK out and with players like Skip we are now fully aware of the offside rule :p

In 10 it seems harder to do as the shot power seems to be related to how fast the ball travels to the reciever (and the angle of it, their foot and where the goal is), so sometimes they just tap it in rather than blast it...

Shami makes a good point - theres also a chance that the reciever was already offside (say it was passed to someone else instead of him as he was offside) and until he returns behind the ball (or last defender - whoevers nearer the goal) he will remain offside...

Nope only two of my players were involved. Maybe it was just a glitch or something but it ended up a draw and he won on penalties because of that decision, he still doesn't let me forget that game, and he wont rematch because he doesn't have 10. :mad:
 
I am talking about 2 players beyond the 2nd last defender, but with the last defender still in front of them (keeper in this case). Then one player passing to the other forwards.

Wrong.


If player 2 is behind the ball, he can pick it up either from a pass or if it is loose.

not if player 2 is behind the ball when it is played... or if the pass goes square... or backwards...

This is how I understand it.
