The Controversial Goal

Emily Vansgard's header against China could have been given as offside. Two players racing through the one who was offside are both in the way of the goalkeeper's view. I don't think we give goalkeepers enough to go with in situations like that, really. Also, it feels a bit like something's got to be on your side if you're scoring ahead of from that far out at that pace. The goal should not go in in usual circumstances.
