3🔍 Why it matters — what to watch for
Judged on your position at the moment of the kick, so even coming back to receive after going beyond is offside. And a delayed flag is the official ‘offside delay’ operation — hold the jeers.
On the call you'll hear“It's in — no, the flag's up! The run was just a fraction early.”
