If he's moving out of the way quickly to get out of the keeper's view, surely he is aware that he is interfering with play by making that motion? Therefore, offside.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!
To think his release clause is cheap aswell
Nico looks so good, fantastic touch and technique.
"Check over".
VAR is just an excuse to make sure the right team gets the call, isn't it?

Hard to believe there were/are people who actually think Rice is close to Rodri.
That Georgian goalkeeper is he available for a reasonable fee?
As much as I’d like it to be, wasn’t offside.
Ha you knew it would stand cos its Spain
I get that he’s not obstructing the keepers view, so it’s the right decision under the rules. But at the same time, the keeper doesn’t know he’s offside - he’s probably half expecting him to stick a leg out and redirect it.
I'd have given it.
He wasn't in the keepers view and he moved in the right direction to ensure it stays that way. So he did the right thing to ensure that the goal stands.
There are high defensive lines and there’s whatever it is Spain are playing.
Rice hit the post, Rodri puts in corner. Rice huffed amd puffed a lot, Rodri controlling tempo. The difference.
feck off Rhodri you inevitable winning bastard
Around £90m release clause
Take it everyone who defended the decision in the Netherlands game agrees that should have been disallowed?
I know we want consistency but that Dutch goal should have stood, likewise Rodri’s goal should stand as well.
100% agreed. He's interfering with play because he's there. A goalkeeper has to be aware of everything around and in front of them. Purely because he's there, he is interfering with play. It's a bit like being a parent and watching your child play by the edge of a pool. They might not fall in, but you're still aware that they could.
Georgia’s technique! 
completely deserved goal for Spain. very fun and fast match after the absolute dirge of Eng/Slov.
Looked two footed but only one foot touched the player.
So you are sometimes to stand offside in view of the keeper, but not always. Seems legit.
Just going into too many details there.
That looked like a wild, dangerous lunge by the Georgian player
16 shots by Spain crazy
Probably same fee as Onana.
Not quite the same situation
Rodri is a top top player. I didn't like him initially as it seemed he wasn't as good as Fernandinho but he's really become much since then.
This looks like a different sport compared to that brutal slog that was on earlier.
They are not similar incidents
It's Spain. Same as the two decisions for Germany yesterday.
Rodri destroys everything that is good about football. Eyebrowless feck
That doesn't make any sense. He might not be right in front of the keeper's view, but he's still there in front of the keeper regardless, whether that's in his peripheral vision or slightly off to the side, or directly in front. He's literally within metres of him, in the same direction from which the ball is coming.
Comparing England to Spain is like chalk and cheese. Even after going behind, they are still playing well.
Yep.
I can't even fathom what England would do in a game of this speed
Both would have gone in anyway. Both had a player in an offside position between the striker and the goal.
Spain are probably the only side with this kind of tempo and crispness to their play in this tournament.
Well done Georgia. Great showing this tournament
