Sessegnon Goal should of stood

[fulhamfever]

We never get luck with the officials.

Mitrovic v Liverpool
Hernandez v Fulham
Sessegnon v Chelsea

It was offside m8, I agree we don't often get the rub of the green though!

It came off Rudigers shoulder into the path of Sess

We have been here before. A deflection does not count to be played on. The touch must be deliberate

Goal correctly disallowed for offside, unfortunately!!!

The question is where was Sess when Vietto headed the ball.  He was offside when the ball deflected off the Chelsea shoulder, but was he off when Vietto got his touch. It's microseconds,  so very difficult, but would have been an interesting one for VAR. 

[Steeeeeeeeeed]

Would have Been an amazing moment for Sess if it was allowed after the season he has had. I was cheering my head off for a couple of seconds .

Ref should have allowed it just to make the young starlet feel.good.

Where's Nick Bateman?

Didn't realise that. I  stand corrected in that case. Yes it was offside.

[ALG01]

I saw the flag in the corner of my eye and had assumed it was the very clear push from Vietto on the defender. If it was offside then it was harsh.

[MikeTheCubed]

Onside when the ball was played.

Yet another big-four-bitch set of officials.

[Brawn]

Hmmmm.... close one.

[YankeeJim]

The question is if Sess was in blue at the Bridge, would it have been called? I doubt. If he played for Rednose at Trafford would have been called? No way.

[JoelH5]

It's offside. Don't ruin the good feeling we have after playing well by trying to pretend we were cheated. I'd be the first to be complaining if we were but it was offside.

[Mince n Tatties]

Daily express on line have another take on that pic,that he was definitely onside.😎

[Robbie]

Sadly it was offside ....  so was Harry Kane when he got bundled over for a PEN.

Bring on VAR.... the big clubs will be very nervous

[toshes mate]

In the rules of the game it may have been as marginal as many PL decisions are these days but it was called offside and that is that. Other goalscorers may get them given to them, Sess didn't.

[Neil D]

Where's Nick Bateman?

There's a conspiracy theory about that...

[junior white]

I felt Vietto nudged the defender before the ball got through, borderline offside, so all in all for me probably the correct decision sadly

[Burt]

There was a foul in the build-up and Sess was offside, so no complaints here. The ref gets enough stick for getting things occasionally wrong, so no point in giving them stick when they get it right :)
