Offside or not? Internacional player scores bizarre winner in Brazil's second tier

Internacional beat Luverdense 1-0 in Brazil's Serie Bthanks to a 93rd-minute effort from William Pottker.Butthe goal washighly controversial.As a ball was slipped through behind the Luverdensedefence, strike Pottker –in an offside position–attempted to latch onto it. Instead, the ball bounced off a Luverdense defender's leg and fell to Joanderson, who was onside.At this point, the linesman furiously waved his flag for offside, sincePottker appeared to be interfering with play, but the referee allowed the game to continue having assumed the defender tried to make a play for the ball, rather than it unintentionallydeflect off him.By now the Luverdense defence had stopped and, rather than playing to the whistle,were looking at the confused linesmanwho had managed to return to the sidelines after briefly encroaching onto the pitch during his flag-waving frenzy.Taking advantage, Joanderson duly squared the ball to Pottker for a simple tap-in, and the game's winning goal.What do you reckon?In Other News... on FourFourTwo.com
