Awful editing and awful commentary. They don't even get the lead up to the only goal of the match.

[@washangel]

Was hoping to see if the goal was actually offside using these unseen camera angles only to be bitterly disappointed by a awful bit of editing. You had one job mate. The commentator was obviously at his very first game of association football. Like he'd never seen a football match in his entire life. What a terribly poor attempt this is. Could have been so much better. 😪

It wasn't offside. Buchan played Stokes onside.

[@davidhuggan6315]

This isn't commentary. It's a report on the match shown only in cinemas the evening after the game

[@staticcentrehalf7166]

Scummers were lucky there was no VAR then. Stokes was a yard offside.

[@andrew1976williams]

No, he was not offside. Martin Buchan played him onside.
