Definition of offside, how is offside defined?

The main purpose and key of offside is that the player is closer to the opponent's end line than the ball, that is, in an offside position. In other words, when a player kicks or heads the ball, the receiver of the same team is in front of the ball in the opposing half of the court and there is only one opposing player between him and the opposing end line.

What is Offside?

1.An attacking player is in an offside position if the ball is closer to the opponent's goal line. Excepts are the following:

a.The player is in his own half.

b.At least two opposing players are closer to the opponent's goal line than that player.

2.When a player kicks or touches the ball and a player of the same team is in an offside position, the referee deems that the player has committed any of the following acts, and the player shall be judged offside:

a.is interfering with a match or interfering with an opponent;

b.Attempt to gain advantage from an offside position.

3.A player shall not be judged offside if:

a.The player was only in an offside position;

b.A player receives a goal kick, corner kick or throw-in directly.

4.If a player is awarded offside, the referee shall award an indirect free kick to the opposing player in the offside position. If the player is offside in the opponent's goal area, the free kick may be taken anywhere in the goal area at the time of offside.

International Council Resolution on Offside:

1.Offside is judged by the moment a player on the same team passes the ball to him, not when he receives it. If a player is in a non-offside position, it is not offside if a player of the same team passes the ball to him or takes a free kick and the player runs in front of him while the ball is flying.

2.If the attacking player is parallel to the second to last defender of the opponent or the last two defenders of the opponent (including two), then the attacking player is not offside.

The offside rule in force today was established in 1925 and has played a great role in the development of football techniques and tactics. In the sense of offside, there is no offside system, and there is no football today.

Offside, as the name suggests, means to cross the position of the ball. In soccer terms, a player is in an offside position if the ball is closer to the opponent's goal line.

In other words, when a player kicks or heads the ball, the receiver of the same team is in front of the ball in the opposing half of the field, and there are less than two opposing players (with or without one opposing player) between him and the opposing goal line, it is offside.

1.Man in front of the ball; 2.people over half; 3.The opposing team has less than two defenders (including the goalkeeper).

The moment an attacking player passes the ball, there is only one defender left in front of the teammate who receives the ball, and it is judged offside.

Note that as long as there is only one defender left in front of you, it is considered offside, not necessarily the goalkeeper.

There are three conditions that must be met for offside:

1. The attacking players must pass the half, that is, enter their own front court, the opponent's backcourt.

2. There is no more than one defender between the attacker's players and the baseline line, that is, there is only one or even no defender.

3. The offside player must be in front of the passer, and the ball is forward.

As long as the above three conditions are met at the moment of passing, it is an offside condition. (Note: Corners and boundary kicks are not offside.) ）

In the 1994 Football Refereeing Law, there is a new interpretation, that is, in order to encourage attack, as long as the offside player does not participate in the attack and does not interfere with the game, the referee can not blow offside.

Now, the latest interpretation is that as long as the offside condition is met, and one of the following three conditions is met, the offside must be awarded.

1. The offside player was involved in the attack.

2. An offside player interferes with the opponent's defense.

3. An offside player interferes with the game.

Offside is a rule in football that restricts attacking – you can't do whatever you want, you have to be bound by certain conditions.

Similar rules are very common in sports, for example, when serving a badminton, you must stand diagonally diagonally; For example, you can't use your legs in boxing;

Even the most open UFC sports (unrestricted mixed martial arts) can't be interpolated or struck. In sports, the attacking side has a certain first-mover advantage, and the offense is limited to a certain extent, which is conducive to the fairness of the game and the enjoyment of the game.

Using offside to limit the attack is to limit the attacking team's passing and receiving – the attacking team cannot pass and receive the ball as they please, and is subject to the rules.

The goal of the football game is to send the ball into the opponent's goal, but the goals in the game are often few, most of the time the football is passed between the players, passing and receiving the ball is the most important activity in football, and the rules to limit the passing and receiving of the ball are the most efficient and powerful.

In order to constrain the offense, but not to be too tight, offside precisely defines this constraint from both time and space.

Offside limits the attacking team's passing and receiving of the ball, which must have two roles: passer and receiver. The offside rule has a time requirement and requires the moment the passer passes the ball; The offside rule has a space requirement that requires the receiver to be in an offside position.

Only when the two requirements of time and space are met at the same time can the offside rule be established and the passing and receiving of the attacking team can be restricted.
