It's curious how we lost Copa to RM with their second goal in easy offside and no one said a word about it (including catalan media). Then the Messi goal that was wrongly disallowed (hard call, but still), and the same happens. If it was Madrid, the shitstorm on the refs would reach epic proportions.
What? How is the Bale goal in any way offside? Is bias so strong that you are imaging weird scenarios?
I just rewatched the goal and that was no offside lol. No point where you could have called offside since Bale started his run in his own half of the pich.
btw, I'm a Barcelona fan and referees have favored Barcelona this year (Messi has scored more penalty goals that previous years), so nobody should complain about the referee error in the last match (It was a hard call). Both Barcelona and R.Madrid shouldn't complain so much about referees. They are usually more favored than other teams like Atletico or Valencia.
If I remember correctly it was Di Maria who was in offside in his run. It's nothing new to me because I saw it live clear as day, but I can understand other people not noticing it back then.
I just wanted to point out that this year Barça has been super classy about the refs, no complaints about those mistakes in the big games that mattered a lot (Liga and Copa). Real Madrid players and coach cry even when they get helped by them. Cholo is also class.
edit: I thought this was the football thread instead of the CL one, sorry for the offtopic.

There.is.no.offside. bale received the ball in his own hall -> no offside
Barca are class because they have nothing to complain.about. stop creatingnonexisting offsides. You lost copa fair and square

If you saw it "clear as day," you would know that Di Maria scored the first goal, not the second.
As for it being offside, I recommend investing in a good pair of glasses:

Pretty close call and hard to see! No offside I think, but if it were against my team...

Yep it was the first goal, not the second. My bad memory. My glasses are already hella expensive, no need for new ones xD
I saw a few pictures at the moment of the pass and it was obvious it was offside, just like when I saw it live back then. With the video posted I admit I have doubts. On the move, I can't really say it for sure.
For the third time, the point was that no one in Barça complained about the refs calls in those games. We lost fair and square.

Yep, looks even. Arm doesn't count. Any bodypart with which you can score a goal counts. Don't think his head is across the red line and even if it is, it's too hard to see. As is the rule, attackers should be given the benefit in close calls like this (even though most refs give advantage to defenders).

I knew it. Rebs I was right after all, if you remember you'd said that even if your nose is offside then you are off play.
Problem though is that when you've ever changed your sidebar settings, the forum is hidden. I'd recommend to bookmark the forum for now for convenience.
