Go and look again at that move and tell me how Downing and Anderson could have possibly defended against Meyer from the moment the ball left Milivojevic's boot.What could they have done differently?
Hound. Are you telling me that the law is supposed to work like that? I'm all for sublime moments of skill making it impossible for defenders to stop attacks. Or genius quick wittedness. What Meyer did was clever, but in a different way. It was gaming a badly thought out work a situation that made it literally impossible to defend against. There is no way on earth that is in the spirit of the offside law.
If the law was so flawed there would be goals like this every week, teams would use abuse it but it hardly ever happens. Defenders just need to be wiser

Right. Youve beaten me Dickos. If you change onto a different topic and don't answer the point we're discussing, there's no point in continuing. Night night.
I thought we were talking about the spirit of the offside law?
