Not sure why anybody from dumbo Ferdinand to posters on here can't grasp what Peter Walton explained so clearly. It's a deflection off Fabinho, not a deliberate play. So Benzema is offside. As Gerrard said in as many words to Rio, Peter Walton has explained it, move on.
I think people’s issue is that Fabinho’s action was deemed a deflection. A pretty liberal definition of the word considering it was an intentional foot in.

Of course we understand what Walton said. He’s wrong.

Fabinho slides in and plays the ball with his knee. If he’s NOT intentionally playing the ball, please explain what he IS doing sliding in at the feet of the striker?

Oh right. So the former ref, the VAR and the VAR assistants are all wrong are they? It bounces off his knee without any control over where it's going, so it's a deflection.

Listening to the justification on BT sport, it’s bull shit. Fabinho makes the tackle, an intentional tackle and the ball ends up at Benzemas feet. Should have been a goal, and the rule needs changing
Completely contradictory post.

Why does Zidane look like he’s got an ASBO?

Who passed the ball to him then?
