Bayern took the trophy because Haller was offside with part of his body. Should Fifa implement their rule plans, the Haller hit would have counted.

According to this, a player is only offside if his whole body is closer to the opposing goal than his opponent. is e.g. For example, if the striker’s heel is level with any part of the defender’s body, play continues.

The rule revolution was first proposed three years ago by Arsène Wenger (73), Fifa director for global football promotion at Fifa.

What do footballers say about the revolution?

Thomas Müller (33) to BILD: “Of course that would be advantageous for us attackers. I think that in general there are enough goals in football that you don’t have to force them artificially. Football thrives on people understanding the rules of the game immediately. This should remain so.”

Schalke striker Simon Terodde (35): “As a striker, I’ll take the advantage with me. You are welcome to introduce the rule.”

Hertha coach Pal Dardai (47) is undecided: “I don’t care. Whether it’s a part of the body or the whole body, in the end there is also the video evidence and still there are controversial decisions.

What does the DFB say?

Referee boss Lutz Michael Fröhlich (65) to BILD: “If you want more goals, it would be logical to change the rule like this. Then it has to apply from youth football to the highest classes.”

According to an internal Fifa investigation from 2020, 50 percent of all offside goals would be valid with the rule change – like Haller’s …

One thing is clear: the new offside will not come next season.
