Just in Case....
Offsides in soccer is determined when the ball is kicked rather than when the player receives the ball.
If the ball is kicked, and the player who receives the kick or involved in the play is closer to the goal line than the defenders, the player is offsides. Furthermore, this only occurs when the player is on their attacking half of the field.
Keep in mind Offsides does not apply on corner kicks, throw ins, and goal kicks.
