The Offside Rule and Offside Trap in Football(Soccer) It is not an offence in itself to be in an offside position.
A player is in an offside position if: he is nearer to his opponents' goal line than both the ball and the second last opponent.0 -
Great win by N.Ireland and the Germany/Poland game has finished in a draw, so NI
only need a draw against Germany to go through!0 -

Write your comments here...Nearly right Rocky the player has to be in the opposing teams half of the field of play, you cannot be offside in your own half.

It was quite a good game with a stand out goal from Gareth Bale. I thought the Welsh team played magnificently, and to be honest, gave England the rattle they needed. Just hoping, with fingers and toes crossed that they both get through, along with Ireland
and Northern Ireland. Some really gutsy performances from some of the underdog teams so far! Be interesting to see just how far England can progress!
Write your comments here...Just watched the highlights and thought it was poor goal keeping rather than a stand out goal, at that level no one should score from 36 yards out. Joe Hart admitted he made a mistake after the game.

Sell, t'internet is the one not right
, I C&P'd it from 'wiki' even after reading it I don't understand it. I only watch tourno's in footie.
Rugby Union is my preferred game0 -
Watched MOTD and thought England performance was good, it's always difficult to play against 11 defenders so well done England. Thought Northern Ireland were brilliant. Home nations doing quite well at the moment, pity Scotland aren't there to enjoy the
party!0 -

Spot on it was a poor mistake by Hart he should not be beaten from that range unless its in the exteme top corner of the goal.The shot from Bale was in fact a good two yards inside the post so Hart did not have too move very far.It was a good win by England
but if we have any thoughts of getting too the final we will have too play a dam site better than that.v9

Half Time in Czech Rep 0 Versus 1 Croatia
One sided, but only One Goal so far, most interesting point so far was just before Half Time a corner was given, players lined up, but before the kick was taken the ref blew for half time !! Players all seemed a
little bemused, but we were not -- Referee is somebody called Mark Clattenberg !! Ah well Time to go & cook my Salad !!Brian A B M

Trouble among the "fans" at the Croatian/Czech game even before the game ended. Czech managed somehow to come back from being hammered and 2 down to draw the game 2-2. This is not the first time that the Croatian fans have caused trouble lately.

I suppose you both are right trellis !!
The Encroaching Forward with less than two defending side players between himself & goal line, and in front of the ball IS in an Offside Position but is only "Offside" if he last player to touch the ball is another Attacking
player AND the Encroacher either plays the ball or is interferring with play { in the Referees not so humble opinion }Complicated on paper, & always arguable when there are six cameras and four "Experts" in the studio arguing the toss !!

Write your comments here...Which is why it says it not an offence to be in a offside position as stated in the first paragraph

I thought the player had to be ""active" to be offside which is why you'll often see the linesman keep his flag down until the player touches the ball when sometimes he's come back into an onside position. Complicated stuff. I picked Germany with Morrisons
and I get an extra 100 more points when they win a match. Rich beyond the dreams of averice.0 -
Well done to the three teams of the United Kingdom who had the skill, talent and ability (and some luck) to win through the group stages and into the last 16 of the Euro 2016 competition.
Lets hope that Scotland can qualify along with England, Wales and Northern Ireland when the next major football tournament comes around.

Well, we now who England will play in the next round....Iceland! Glad it was not Portugal who we've never beaten in a championship. Still don't know for sure who Wales & NI will play yet, tonight's matches will decide, but they could well be playing eachother.

Yes, a good job that the English team got Iceland.
As I understand it, Portugal only have one bloke in their team, but he's basically like Superman or something.
Apparantly he scores all their goals and has the strength of 11 men, bullets bounce off him and he can fly like a plane......so it's a good job that the English team didn't have to play against him. As I understand it, they only have the strength of about
3 men, plus someone with a head like a potatoe?Will it all be over after the next game?

What a great win for Ireland, beating Italy, to qualify for the knockout stages. They now have to play France. Wales will play N.Ireland, and England v Iceland.
