Incident
Offside
Law cited
Law 11 β€” Offside is a matter of fact, not opinion
Recommended action
Goal correctly disallowed β€” SAOT put Ronaldo beyond the second-last defender at the moment the ball was played. Because offside is objective and measured, the fineness of the margin changes nothing: the technology gives a definitive answer and the goal cannot stand.

Ronaldo's goal was disallowed for offside, confirmed by semi-automated offside technology. Offside is an objective, factual call β€” SAOT measured him beyond the second-last defender when the ball was played, so the disallowance is correct. A clean, uncontroversial application of the technology.
