Nothing wrong with that goal whatsoever like, he's no where near the keeper when the header is made, which is when he would have been offside.

 

Doesn't matter what happened before the ball was played, doesn't matter if he's 50 yards offside at that point, he's not committing an offence until the ball is played

I don’t even know what the offside laws are now. But that feels like the right decision. Not sure I agree with it, though? 
 

He’s standing on the keeper’s toes and nudging into him constantly. Then at the last second, he moves out the way?! Seems a bit wrong to me. 

 

Not quite at the old man down the social club levels of “if you’re not interfering with play. What are you doing on the pitch?” But I think there are too many grey areas and ways to interpret it. 
 

I’m sure it’s gotten worse for things like this, handballs, penalties etc since VAR. As they are subjective calls and not black and white. So there is just no consistency week to week and even more of a microscope on every decision.
