This example came up in my local game at the weekend. Is this offside?
Shots played outside the box and the attackers teammate is offside from out of picture, but not active (he squared the ball to the shooter from the byline). The keeper parries the ball from the shot and it lands at the defenders feet, defender steady's to control it, prepares to hoof it away but the byline attacker (who was originally offside from the shot) comes in and nicks it off his foot and into the net.
Also second question. In my determination the defender controlled the ball from the parried shot and tried to play it. Would it matter if this wasn't the case? Like if the shot is parried from the goalkeeper to the defender and it hits off his backside, or just hits off his foot, then the attacker nips in to score. TIA
