Chapter 81: Fighting Back

---

[David Archer plays a lovely little ball to Alexis Butcher, who's offside. He doesn't seem to know it, however, and he's scored.]

[The offside flag isn't coming up, Tim. The goal's going to count.]

[But surely, he's offside there.]

The commentators didn't know that right before David crossed the ball into the box, Alexis ran into an offside position so that he could receive the ball. The linesman saw Alexis's sly action so he didn't raise the flag

[Doesn't matter at this point. The linesman had his flag down. It's a goal. Alexis Butcher has scored the second of the match, and Charles Patterson seem to be running away with it at this point. We're not even thirty minutes into the match, and they've already got a two-goal cushion.]
