Its the rule though, it is not about passing the ball to Benzema, it is being in control of the ball when u 'pass' it. I am not disagreeing it should be a goal, I think it should. But the offside rule allows for deflections. How a deflection is defined is anybodies guess
Before it hit the first Liverpool is came from a RM player, they are saying that hitting the 2 Liverpool players were deflections in the same passage of play
The big problem with VAR is that in these situations where it is difficult to determine the intent or the rule or the offside or whatever, the benefit of doubt should always be given to the attacking team imo
The rugby European Champions Cup was in France earlier today with 62k people and there wasn't a problem at it. It is football fans cause problems. Look at the Euro final in Wembley too
So they had very little time to organise it and it is being reported that thousands turned up without tickets and u are complaining they delayed the kickoff. What would the Russians have done? Shoot to kill?
