law 11. 2

[bobthesod]

team A is in the attack phase and player X is in an offside position when the ball from player Y is passed to player Z who is onside. X either runs back to an onside position or is placed onside by a defender. .Z then does a backward cross to X who scores iIs this a legal goal?.
The law just says offside is then called. but mentions nothing else about subsequent position of X nor whether tge pass to X is forwards or backwards

Welcome!
In the first phase there is no offence as player X is not actively involved.
In the second phase, player X is not further forward than the ball so is not offside.
Whether the ball is played forward or not is totally immaterial.
Hope that helps.

A new offside phase starts every time the ball is played or touched by an attacking player

Sounds highly like the situation where Celtic scored their 2nd goal.
If not, have a look at that goal and you should get a good feel for this law.
