I was just watching this video and I saw this interesting comment, what do u guys think about it?
Clearly offside. When the goal keeper came out beyond Mexico's player, even with the SA player at the post, it put the Mexican player offside. The rule states that offside is achieved when an offensive player is closer to the goal than the second to last defender and the ball ... because they are assuming the keeper is the last defender. So when the keeper came out, essentially, the SA player at the post takes on the keeper's role as last man putting the Mex. player offside.
