Skrtel goal
Suarez assist?
Look at it this way. Suarez shoots. It rebounds off ivan. Skirtel cores. Wud that be a suarez assist?
No assist, it deflected of Ivanovic.
WHOOHOOOO! SKRTEL GOAL (SUAREZ ASSIST?) lol
Does Suarez get an assist there?
On fpl he did get the assist. Tekno says no though. We’ll see.
I dont think he.ll get assist raz…..
Thank you!
definite assist
Suarez got a touch on that right?? So he should get an assist?
Suarez assist has been added, but it’s rather likely for it to be taken off him after the match.
Why Tekno? Suarez header on target towards goal, hits defender, Skrtel finishes? That’s the definition of a rebound, no?
I remember ‘if a def causes a significant change in ball direction’then assist will be taken off. Plus its suarez. They hate him
Well if he got a touch on it, then it’s likely he’ll keep the assist. It’s just hard to tell if he actually touched it or not…
“If an opposing player touches the ball after the final pass before a goal is scored, significantly altering the intended destination of the ball, then no assist is awarded.
Rebounds
If a shot on goal is blocked by an opposition player, is saved by a goalkeeper or hits the woodwork, and a goal is scored from the rebound, then an assist is awarded.”
So essentially, if Suarez touch counts as a shot, he should get the assist, but if it counts as a pass he shouldn’t get it. If it was a header on target, it’s not unlikely for him to keep the assist actually.
Good lad. Im happy now. Suarez assist. Shame about hazard…
A header on target is just as good as a shot on target? How else do you classify a headed goal? By the very definition you quoted, it supports the fact that the assist should remain for Suarez?
Yes Milk, I didn’t see the goal clearly so I haven’t seen whether or not it was a header on target. As there has been several situations this season where assists have been removed due to deflections, I jumped to the conclusion that this one would be removed as well. It it indeed was a header on target the assist should stay.
*If it indeed was a header on target the assist should stay.
Not to be rude, but if you haven’t seen the goal, how are you calling the situation as a removal of assist to Suarez? o_O
Milk if you read my post then you read that “I jumped to the conclusion that this one would be removed as well”. I also wrote that I didn’t see the goal CLEARLY, so I have obviously seen the goal, but I didn’t see that it was a header on target. Taken this into account it should be easily understandable that I no longer hold the position that the assist should be removed as I don’t know if it was a header on target, and need to see a replay to determine this for myself. Ok?
Just saw the replay and it was obviously a header on target, according to the rules it should count as a rebounded shot then and the assist should therefore stay.
