Number 20 DID interfere, b/c he took an active role in the play, he moved towards the ball, being in an offside position alone is not enough for an offside call, but if that play, regardless if she or he actually touches it, intends to make a play, then, automatically it is offside, an entire team infraction, NO goal, usa bullshit, cheating
Match Details:
- Teams: USA vs. Australia
- Location: Seattle, Washington
- Timeline: Shortly before halftime [1]
The Controversy & The Ruling:
- The Incident: Alex Freeman headed the ball into the net following a deflected shot in the box, but the assistant referee immediately raised the offside flag. [1]
- The Check: Replays showed two US players stood in offside positions, while Australia's Cameron Burgess (who played the ball) was onside. [1]
- The Outcome: The VAR determined that the offside US players were not interfering with play. The referee's decision was overturned, and the goal was officially awarded
