He looks very much in an offside position at the time of Boateng's (?)
header. I'm not sure though whether Muslera's attempted clearance should
count as a deflection/rebound, or the beginning of a new play.

In any case, it was a very difficult case to judge.

Why wouldn't Muslera's clearance reset the play from an offside point of
view?

You should be talking about Bruce instead. I never noticed he made up stuff
before or initiated threads to launch unwarranted attacks against people who
don't think like him.

It's not so clear. If it had been Muslera diving to parry a shot and Appiah
shooting on the rebound, it would definitely not have reset the offside, and
Appiah's position should have been sanctioned.

But in this case Muslera makes more of a deliberate play, so one could argue
that his clearance puts Appiah back in play.


Here's a goal scored by Trezeguet in a Torino-Juventus of a couple of years
ago.

Trez is clearly in an offside position at the time of the Juve player's
header forward. Is he put back in play the moment the Torino defender
attempts to play the ball? The goal was allowed to stand.
