That deliberately played rule should be scrapped. Who the feck came up with that rule? It's as if the rule makers wanted to make the offside rule as complicated as possible.

Peter Walton, the corpse.
He didn’t get near the ball FFS.
Deliberate deflection, has there ever been a deliberate deflection?More like who is the opposition. We have seen here in PL last couple of years.
So the ref has to read the players mind and decide whether or not he meant it?
Why in the feck would Fabinho deliberately play it to Benzema?
Absolute nonsense rule. Only counts if a player deliberately gives the ball to the opposition player
That doesn't exist.
The rule is that the attacking player must be behind at least 2 opponents. Doesn't matter keeper or not. Usually you look at the last defender because the keeper is near the goal.
The ref didn't give it, VAR did.
You're offside if there are not two players between you and the goal (those 2 players don't have to include the goalkeeper);
The decision is that when Valverde touched the ball, it hit Fabinho and went to Benzema who was offside.
The only debate is whether Fabinho deliberately gave the ball to Benzema, if involuntary then Benzema's offside.
But Liverpool are lucky.

Wait there, one of the Liverpool players, be it Fabinho or Konate... plays it deliberately, what's the issue here?
Exactly so in that instance, Robertsons poor positioning should be playing Benzema offside because Allisson has rushed out of his goal.
This rule to strike out the Benzema goal is such a terrible rule.
The rule is dumb
think you need to take the glasses back off mutley
Jammiest cnuts ever.
Pre match shenanigans from the fans, classic var call going their way.
Different day same stuff.
Different day same stuff.
Peter Walton stuttering to make up this shit sound like the referee's decision is correct
Yes he did
Of course both Liverpool players were deliberately playing the ball. They weren’t there sliding in by accident.
Messed that up .... the fabinho accidental "deflection" was from a another liverool players' touch.
The intent of the rule as it applies here is that if a ball played by the attacking team deflects off a defender and then goes to another attacking player who was in an offside position when the attacking player played the ball, then it’s offside. But that’s not what happened here. The ball was played by a Liverpool player, not a Real player. No offside and the goal should have stood.
Think the whole deflection thing makes perfect sense. Otherwise players could just stand in an offside position and hope for a deflection and then go on and score.
That being said, I'd have much preferred the goal to stand. I don't want Liverpool to win any more than they already have done this season.

They can deem if a deflection is deliberate or not but when a player handballs the ball right before setting up a goal it’s allowed. What a sport
You lot are blind
The ball goes precisely in the direction that Fabinho INTENDS to play the fecking ball. feck me what a robbery.

You want Liverpool to win?!? Wtf
I thought he did. Would be a clear goal if he didn't but I thought I saw him get a boot on it from a couple different angles.
It's not a deflection ffs
Good game all round. Liverpool dominated first 20-25 mins, Madrid came back into it last 10 mins. Madrid still need a second outlet on the right to make the counter a credible threat. I'd bring on either Rodrygo or Hazard if the flow of the game doesn't change second half.
Same shit, different toilet.
There's absolutely nothing controversial about the goal. The Madrid player got the first touch and it bounced off of a Liverpool player (who obviously had no control). Benzema was offside at that moment due to the century old last player equals goalkeeper rule. You lot are way too subjective here.
At least he got embalmed before making an appearance.
He went for the ball. How is that not deliberate?
He really is. Don’t know why BT think he’s an insightful person to have on the panel?
You know he’s never going to go against the referee or VAR’s decision even though it looks evidently wrong.
The last Real Madrid player to touch the ball before Benzema put it in from a Konate/Allison/Fabinho deflection was Benzema... baffled by that decision and Peter Walton saying "It's easy".
You can do that, but you better not call him an Orc!
So was Drogba offside in 2010? Or not, because Gerrard deliberately passed it to him?
Liverpool players making lunging tackles is deliberate

It's a goal. Simple as that. Awful call
