France's Goal- Offside?

Was that offside? They only showed the replay once, I couldnt watch, but it looked as if it could have been?

Update:

And should that have been a PK after Torres went down?

Update 2:

Allright, thanks. Been a great match so far, look forward to the rest of it.

    Ribery was in front of the offsides trap when the ball was passed. The pass was wayy before Ribery passed the last defensive player. Henry was offsides but he didn't effect the play really so it was all good.

    The PK, no only because it was a shoulder to shoulder challenge, Torres was shrugged off the ball. Thats fair. Torres did of course embellish the fall a bit, but all players do that. The first PK I'll agree with Pablo clearly had possession of the ball (positioning wise) and not only did Sagnol step on his feet, but it looked like he shoved Pablo from behind. Thats a PK

  • Nops! Ribery was standing with the last man and he out ran him. did you see henry standing cos if he had made the ran then it would have been an offside. its simple ribery came from behind.

    Nope, Thiery Henry was not a participant... he stood there and raised his hands.

    Nope no PK, he took a dive.
