They showed it for all of 5 seconds.. and their drawn on line wasnt level with the grass line, obv dont know if the grass line is straight.
The grass line will be straight and parallel to all the other lines on the pitch, but just as on the picture, none of those lines look parallel when you have a camera pointing from one side. So the line used to decide offside won't look parallel to that grass. If you use that (the grass line nearer to goal), the player further away can look offside even when he's on by a yard or two. The line used to decide will be at an angle somewhere between that one, and level with the next line in the grass towards the centre circle.
I think it needed reviewing. Part of the problem is that Salah looks offside just before the past but just at that moment Fernandinho is accelerating really quickly. I've seen the replay a few times and I can't see it clearly, at all.
