Offside is a violation rule in football match, which means that the receiver stands closer to the goal than the second-to-last defender at the moment when the attacker passes the ball and tries to prepare for the attack.
The formulation of offside rules is a perfection of the rules in the development of football matches. In the football match in the 19th century, there is often a picture that the attacking players are all concentrated in the opponent’s restricted area or even in front of the goal, ready to start shooting after receiving the ball. Due to the high concentration of personnel, there is little wonderful cooperation in the football match, and the play is simple and boring.
In order to change this situation, mobilize the players to run actively, and increase the competitiveness and interest of the game, in 1870, the British Football Association formulated the rule of offside. At that time, it was stipulated that there must be at least three defensive players between the catcher and the baseline, otherwise they would be sentenced to offside.
In the following years, the rules of offside were constantly changed and improved. For example, in 1880, the rules of catching goal kick and corner kick were added, and in 1907, the rules of catching the ball in one’s own half were added.
In 1925, international football association board revised the offside rule again, changing the limit of three players to two. This change has greatly promoted the attack and development of football matches.
From the definition of offside, it is not illegal for a player to be offside, but if he is offside and participates in the attack, he will be sentenced to offside violation. Therefore, in the game, some players will choose to stand still after knowing that they are offside, indicating that they are not involved in the attack.
Of course, participating in the attack is not limited to catching the ball. Players who are offside will also be sentenced to offside if they have the following behaviors:
1. Get or touch the ball after passing or touching the ball by the team members, thus interfering with the game.
2. Interfering with the opposing team members, including: ① obviously obstructing the line of sight of the opposing team members, so as to hinder the opposing team members from handling the ball or affect their ability to handle the ball; (2) compete with the opposing team for the ball; (3) there is an obvious attempt to touch the incoming ball close to his position, and this move affects the opposing team members; (4) make obvious actions that affect the ability of the opposing players to handle the ball.
3. Touch the ball after the following situations, so as to gain benefits or interfere with the opposing players: ① The ball bounces or refracts from the goalposts, beams and opposing players; (2) The ball comes from any opposing player who intentionally saves the ball.
It must be noted that the following situations will not be judged offside:
1. Corner kick;
2. Directly connect to goal kick;
3. Throw a foul ball.
