Just watched the highlights and can’t believe how low the standard of officiating in this league! Somebody else have a look, but both goals came from a long throw-in and for both of the throws the Cardiff guys foot is over the line and on the pitch!
I understand the rule to be that your foot should be behind the line. If that is the case, how come the officials cannot spot such a simple thing?????
Not forgetting the assault on Morsy for the second goal.
When you’re where we are little goes your way. The shot for the 2nd is going miles wide, hits Naismith who is trying to dodge it and goes in.
Cardiff’s 3 goals……Nothing wrong with the disallowed one. Marshall floundering ….so swing/roundabouts.

The law is both feet have to be on or behind the touchline so you can have the majority of your foot over the line and the tiniest fraction over it and it’s fine
Just like from a corner the ball can be placed on the ground outside the triangle as long as part of the ball overhangs the line of itBoth throw ins were perfectly okay in law & it’s just an example of a player and club knowing those laws and exploiting them to gain that extra bit of advantage
Tyldesley, I realised that when I read up on the law for throw-ins! Why on earth they changed it from “both feet outside the touchline” I’ll never know. Having said that and watched them again, his foot was clearly on the line for the second, but I am not convinced for the first!
