    Of course, I'm tuning in at halftime. The Guardian seems to be quite sure that Giroud was offside for the first goal. Anyone here see this? I haven't been able to find a replay so far.

    I never saw a definitive replay, but it looked like he was slightly off. Certainly nothing obvious.

    It was a ways up field, so the camera angle wasn't the best. Hard to tell.

    My dad is 100% convinced that was a pen for handling by FRA. I disagree, not deliberate.

    It strikes me that there is little difference between this 'handling' and the one yesterday.

    Yea this one clearly shouldn't be called.

    Apart from almost everything you mean?

    Was a tight call and I'm still not 100% on what the correct call should be but of course that also means that the right call was to not call offside.
