From the footage to me he looks about a foot offside.Originally posted by Damavand View PostAzizi was clearly onside on that play.
I went to Sharif University. I'm a superior genetic mutation, an improvement on the existing mediocre stock.

That is true but the second touch/shot and not the tap is the offside pass. The tap wasn't offside.Originally posted by Damavand View PostThe start of the play was a bit earlier than that. The start of the play is at 2:24 mark when the first player taps the ball sideways for the second player to shoot.
At the time of the tap Azizi is clearly onside.I went to Sharif University. I'm a superior genetic mutation, an improvement on the existing mediocre stock.

I was eight years old back then. Up until now I remembered this match as one where we played much better and had an onside goal called off wrongfully. Not so sure about that after seeing these highlights lol. Other than several poor shots we did not have any clear chances. Saudi hit our post twice and had several decent chances.

I've never watched the game live and in fact this video is the first time I've seen it. Based on this video there doesn't seem to be anyone further back. Right before the kick it shows the 8-0er wall having 4 players. I count 6 more scattered around (3 more on a diagonal line in front of the wall and 3 on the edge of the box). There is a chance that one of the 4 players in the wall came out of it in between camera angles and is not seen on screen but I find it unlikely.Originally posted by Nokhodi View PostWasn't the belief that there is a Saudi player further down (and out of the screen) who is making Azizi onside?I went to Sharif University.

The other question of this thread was whether Estili was fouled in the box. Looking at the footage below I believe he was and we should have had a penalty kick.
I don't think the 8-0er even touches the ball but slides over it as Estili megs him.
