Did they count the contact of the defender as ruling him onside?

To be fair I think a Rice Pogba Bruno Midfield is better.

But Rice can't be bought till next year and would cost more than double
Rice is a good player don’t get me wrong, but I just don’t see him as being a level above, or bringing more to the team, than Tchouemanni

Nice finish.

But he looked off, I've not seen a proper angle to show if he was or not.

I think the rule of every inch counting for offside is the way to go.

Is cruel but objective. The goal was very off.

Looked well off form the replay.
Must be due to the defender trying to intercept it and getting a touch.

Pretty certain it's a VAR mistake, Kane scored a similar goal couple years ago and afterwards was shown to be a mistake.

Was the replay stopped late or something because the angle shown showed he was clearly off and not in the "benefit of the doubt" range either.

Assuming it's onside because the defender played the ball?

Edit: Yep.

The commentator is saying it was ruled onside because it came off the Spanish defender .. I am not sure what the rules are anymore.. Are phase of plays still a thing?

I'm up for France because of Pogba and he has been absolutely brilliant.

BUT that was clearly offside and a very suspect call by the VAR

No team in particular.
Garcia touched the ball, which is why it wasn't considered off-side.

Unlucky Spain
