Should Portugal put in a formal complaint against the offside goal by Spain in the first elimination round of the World Cup?

No soccer match in history has ever had its result revised because of an incorrect offside decision. Which are of course plentiful... it would be rare game where no move was incorrectly called offside, and no move was incorrectly called onside. Frankly, I don't have that much confidence in the ability of tech, esp in the hands of an interested party, to produce a correct decision on a call that is very close on anyway.

This one is certainly not one that would get people questioning if the officials need glasses! Certainly the TV replays I saw of the goal from different angles made it appear legit, and the goal was not questioned by neutral TV commentators. If we start revisiting games where a wrong decision was made, we'd have to replay the whole World Cup.

England goal over the line against Germany, Fabiano handball for a Brazil goal. Tevez offside for an Argentina goal etc. And given that officials will make mistakes in the replayed matches as well, the process of replaying could go on til Christmas. Better to introduce tech so we make less mistakes in future, and accept that such officiating mistakes that are made during a game are not really correctable afterwards.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
