Dudes, you can't just draw an arbitrary black line on a frame and decide that it was "clearly" onside or offside! One would think that would be common sense.
The fact of the matter is that there's absolutely no way to determine whether this was onside or offside from that camera angle with a single line. You have to draw multiple lines that take both parallel lines on the field and perspective into account a few frames forward and then adjust it back for this particular frame.
No one has done that and until someone does, please stop saying "clearly" one way or the other!
Worst case scenario, he was onside and the linesman made a bad call... yes, the first bad offside call in the history of mankind! The whole world must be against us.
For the love of god just get over a bad call (even if it was that) and get on with life. Bad calls happen all the time. And this wasn't even one of those goals where someone scores and then they blow the whistle!
Gucci scored several seconds after the whistle and after everyone stopped moving with the exception of their goalie making a half attempt.
