I don't know about the offside part but the actual foul was a clear pen.
June internationals (WC qualifiers and Nations League)
- Thread starter VanDeBank
- Start date
Played well England
1-1 is fair here, England miles better in second half.
Germany got a more youthful look about them now compared to euros so will probably have a deep run in the world cup.

Rudiger has a screw loose.
Yeah that's an intentional play imo. Good reffing there - assuming the foul was a foul
I don't understand why that's not offside but the Benzema goal in the UCL final was.
That’s over 25%.
For the love of God, start booking goalies who take the piss with time wasting.
Was it deliberate?
It never was, that's why
Did Bellingham just throw up on the pitch?
yeah. probably ranks in their top 3 wins of all time.
I spotted that as well
Neither team is going to do too much at the World Cup. Germany still in a bit of rebuilding stage and England are overrated.
Got out of jail free.
how can the foul happen before the offside if you acknowledge a player is in an offside position?
He didn't attempt to touch the ball? What was the thing he was chasing after then?
I think rather than that rule being the one they've used to give the penalty, it's more likely that they've deemed the touch from the Germany player as intentional thus Kane could never have been offside anyway.
Why the feck was Pickford time wasting? England looked the likelier winner with Grealish and Bowen coming off the wings. Very poor mentality.
Tomori next either Maguire or Stones would make it a better pairing.
Yeah but if he doesn’t get there then is it offside? Maybe the foul means a new phase of play before Kane can be offside?
It’s a strange one
It wasn’t. They just called that off to help Pool.
I dont't understand why Flick keeps persisting with Werner. Might as well play Julian Brandt, he at least gets it right sometimes..
Stems from the manager.
The first half was pretty appalling but I think England should be happy with large parts of the second. Southgate should be less conservative with subs, they made a huge difference.
I thought he was a particularly skillful spitter but that actually makes more sense...
I'll say it again, just bring in the stop clock and have two 30 minutes halves.
But he’s only in a position to be fouled because he’s offside. The offside position affects the defenders decisions cos they don’t know not to make a challenge. That rule is ridiculous.
Only good team in the group goes first
Isn't Werner Germany's top scorer under Flick?
To reiterate, a player isn't offside until he actually touches or attempts to touch the ball. Chasing after it isn't the same thing. Being in an offside position isn't an offence in the rules of the game.

To query again - do you believe that you can wipe a player out and get away with it just because they were in an offside position?
(e.g. not yet 'offside', but in an offside position)
Commentator said Werner has 6 in 8 under Flick
Thinks he's playing for Everton still. Was doing it before half time too.
Instead of trying to win the game.
He was underwhelming at City but Grealish really should start. With Foden not being selected how do you not start Grealish?
He came on and was the best attacker on the pitch. England should have won.

Bit fortunate that the Germany defence had a mare with the penalty but thought it was a much improved display from England and were good value for the point. Grealish really did make the difference when he came on.
People saying was a jammy penalty, you're not wrong. But we got fecking southgate as boss we deserve a bit of luck tbh.
No but I've seen it happen plenty of times tbf. Doesn't mean the ref can't penalise someone if they just blatantly hack someone with no attempt to play the ball because they know the guy if offside.
The rules are stupid. Running onto a ball = not an attempt to play a ball? Makes sense.
Good game this, I know Southgate deservedly gets stick from England fans but he made the right subs, still miss historical Germany strikers though, don’t they produce quality players in that position on their Academies?
Fecking mount! If Grealish was player of the year he still wouldn't start for southgate.
