Off side rule.

I always thought that if an opposition player touches the ball the offside is then cancelled. 🤔

They intend changing the current rule, going back to the old rule where there must be "space" between the attacker and defender. Will get the lowdown tomorrow from a friend of mine who is head of the Referee Association for the Pacific region. He reports back to FIFA. We schooled and played played football together from Grade 3. He video called me last Saturday and we were discussing the Liverpool debacle. Lives in New Zealand but is on football business in Australia right now, goes back Sunday.

My friend responded, "Undergoing trials as we speak experimenting with the option of day light between attacker and second last defender".
