Slightly different rule but read through this Dale Johnson Twitter thread, this has been going on for a while now, several examples going back 5 years ago.

However, he does say, like most us think it’s not in the spirit of the game.

Rodri, came from behind Mings v Villa but Mings had control of the ball, how far would he be able to run before Rodri could make a legitimate challenge? I didn’t see anything wrong with that but the outcry because it was City lead to a change in the rules. This latest incident should definitely show what a poor rule this is and amend it.

As a city fan the villa/rodri incident should never be a goal. It’s embarrassing for the game (taking city out of it). As is the Salah goal. I played football at a semi decent level. I cant believe anyone who did similar thinks either incident should be a goal

They also apprently changed the interpretation after the city/villa controversy. Not that youd know that after the Salah goal

The Rodri rule change had nothing to do with the interpretation of the Salah goal offside, seriously, it’s been a misnomer for several years now.

I wonder what sort of welcome they got down in the valleys? I remember City going there in the cup at the height of the "Forward with Franny" fiasco. By all accounts, it was a hairy afternoon.

Chaos. If that gate was opened fully at the full time whistle, there would have been fatalities that day…..
