Getty images issues an apology too
Earlier, we published a piece, “World Cup 2018: The Sexiest Fans,” that did not meet our editorial standards. We regret the error and have removed the piece. There are many interesting stories to tell about the World Cup and we acknowledge this was not one of them.

Sucks as they had a great shot of me they were getting ready to post before this kerfuffle ensued

Sweet goal by Rojo!  with a killer assist by Mercado

Ok maybe I don't know my rules that well...but I watched that messi goal again
He looked offside to me...for just a second or two before the ball passes them
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXeQ2ePyaI4

apparently I'm alone in my assessment
this rundown of the goal is great
https://www.sbnation.com/soccer/2018/6/26/17507010/lionel-messi-goal-argentina-nigeria

He wasn’t close to offside, and it didn’t matter.
Not sure what he means here...wouldn't it matter if he was offside?

look where messi is when the ball was passed to him - he was onside.

It's the moment the ball is passed to him, and three guys are between him and goal at that point.

Ok..so that is the part of the rule I was shaky on...and that makes sense
I just look at the ariel shot and he is clearly in front of the last defender...but it's when the ball is already in the air

keeping it classy

They meet France next...if they beat them...they get the winner of Portugal - Uruguay
not looking good to make it to the Semi's...but I'm still rooting for them
