The bold didn't happen though.

In fact it's so much not a part of the correct guidelines that there are guidance clips showing that it shouldn't have been allowed:


And if you look on the previous page you'll see a clip from an Italian game that appears to show the exact same thing.
Perfect example, thank you!

I've said so many times over and over, controlling the ball ISN'T playing the ball. You have to either accidentally or intentionally pass them the ball for somebody in an offside position to be active.

I hope this now clears it up for you @giorno, its nice to see FIFA clarifying this.
