'It's very clear' - Barcelona captain insists Osimhen was offside in the build-up to Napoli goal
Published: February 18, 2022
In the 29th minute, Piotr Zielinski slammed in the rebound after goalkeeper Ter Stegen saved his initial effort, moments after Barcelona missed a chance to take the lead.
However, the goal was given after a VAR review with the Nigeria international deemed not to be interfering with play.
"It is very clear. The offside rule is a bit like that of the hand inside the area, confusing. The referee should have whistled offside," Pique told Movistar+ post-match.
Osimhen was caught offside the most during the contest, three times over the course of 80 minutes he was on parade at the Camp Nou.
Barcelona earned a draw thanks to Ferran Torres who leveled from the penalty spot in the 59th minute after Juan Jesus was penalized for a handball.
