True Grit: Arsenal overcome Saha's terribly offside goal
Lee Mason's refereeing was atrocious. Louis Saha was miles offside when Seamus Coleman launched his pass to him making him active. The linesman should have raised his flag there and then. End of story. However FIFA's rules are also clear when it comes to Koscielny's situation. An attacker will be penalized for playing the ball being in a previous offside position even if the shot or pass rebounds off an opponent and comes to him.
