How is an arm being offside offside

Because you're allowed to score with the shoulder

Yes that's right, the part of your body that you cannot legally score with in football can be deemed offside.

Stupid rule.

Upper arm. Any part of the body that can play the ball being offside, you're offside, by the laws of the game. The tight ones that take forever to call are poo poo but these quick decisions are fine imo.

100% agreed. Auto-offside is cool & good, Mike Dean using crayons on a tv screen is bad and poo poo.

Argentina seem to be completely devoid of any fighting spirit, like they thought this game would be won automatically. It's kind of hilarious.

It does, but it's hard to tell what's really worse - Saudis or Di Maria.
