[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm relatively new to soccer and one thing people warned me about is how confusing offside is. It took me about 10 seconds to understand it. You can't be closer to the goalie than the last defender when your teammate passes you the ball. What are the complications? Why do people find this difficult to understand?[/quote] Because it’s really hard to see the person who’s about to be all sides or who isn’t gonna be offsides and the person who’s kicking the ball. If you look at when the guy kicks the ball and then you look at the guy running to receive the ball it might look like they’re off sides because they are closer to the goalie. Because it’s when the ball is kicked to them not when they receive the ball. Also, when the ball bounces off the goalie to somebody, there are so many people it’s hard to see who touches the ball first and if the opposite team is closer to the goalie than the closest defender.[/quote]
