At the game I thought that the lad who were put through would shoot and score, I was amazed that he passed it.
But there seems to be a bit of confusion here, as the Swans fans seem to think the offside was given for Beattie being offside from the pass. I thought the offside was given because Beattie was 5 yards off side when the passer was put through.
As he never bothered to get himself back on side he therefore was interfering with play when the ball was eventually passed to him.
Which was it, or was it both?

If the player had took it himself it would have been agoal,but to pass it to the player who was well offside,the linesman was spot on,Swansea gaffer not happy but if he think the goal should have been given,1st stop should be specsavers for him. :? :? :?
Well offside

surely it was the final pass that was offside and not the fact that he was off side when the initial pass was made. otherwise we would have taken the frrekick from the original off side and not in the box.
Having seen the replay on TV I can’t see how Rodgers can say it was definitely onside as the camera probably has a better angle than he had on the touchline.
I think it’s 50-50, but the linesman was up with play so he should have had a good view. It’s all academic now anyway!
On last nights BBC League Cup show they froze the play as the ball was played across and Beattie was level! What a shame?
