babadono Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Was the player who made the third goal offsides? Or is my TV f'd up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I saw one goal on a PK that went to the upper right-hand corner of the net. That was a direct kick from Messi. It doesn't get much better than that. He could have had another goal later in the match from virtually point blank and passed it to a team mate for the goal. One of the greatest shots I've ever seen. Messi is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Was the player who made the third goal offsides? Or is my TV f'd up? His run was timed perfectly. You can be behind the defender the split second the ball leaves the foot of the passer. I'd need to see a frame by frame breakdown but it was REALLY close.

Close, but not offsides. http://www.newshub.co.nz/sport/video-highlights-argentina-beat-usa-4-0-in-copa-america-semi-final-2016062214#axzz4CKqb5ZlO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Close, but not offsides. That's as close as you can get and not be off sides. For what it's worth, I thought our keeper should have gotten the first one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if anyone could have stopped that but I thought he was in no mans land on the first goal. He should have been in the goal or on the ball but when you're halfway between the two, nothing good happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the commentators did not say one word. At least on the channel I was watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have been in the goal or on the ball but when you're halfway between the two, nothing good happens. Flat footed. Have you ever sat behind a goal and watch the rocket coming at you? Very much like a slapshot except a hockey net is easier to fill with your body. IDK if anyone could have stopped that even if he told them what shot he was going to take Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Not me. I was either the assist guy or the rocket maker. Garbage goals like Chile's second were also tons of fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
