The way you’re explaining it, which I believe is wrong, Burn could have been standing 15 yards offside, in a clear offside position and gaining an advantage. Defender wins header from ball played forward and deliberately nods it towards his goalie, not seeing Burn, Burn collects in his offside position and scores!
You say goal, I say offside at the point the ball was played forward by Brighton player!
If it’s the former watch out for a spate of goal hangers ala the school playground.
You’re wrong i’m afraid. There was one last year between Kane and Lovern which totally changed my understanding of the law. Below link explains it better.
