OK this just happened in my FM save so take that for what it's worth. Allan St. Maximin (whoops wrong winger) received a pass in an onside position in the box and shot it. The shot rebounded off the post and St. Maximin who was now further forward than any player other than the goalie got his own rebound and slotted it home. The game not only said it was a good goal it didn't even review the play for a potential offside with VAR. Also on replay I noted that the linesman never raised his flag but I realized that I don't actually know the rule in this area. It touched no one else it was a clean initial shot that struck the foot of the right post and St. Maximin who had followed the initial shot picked it up with only the goalie to beat and did so. So is it because the initial ball (the first shot) was taken from an onside position and no one touched it that St. Maximin was still considered onside? Or was this a glitch? Help me SoSH friends.
Also I just found out that you can't be offside if you are the first receive a goal kick (I knew about Corners and Throws but the Goal Kick thing was new to me.)
