Does anyone remember where the kick was taken afterwards? Was it in the 6 where the player in front was, or towards the sideline where the cross came from?

I would guess the call was that the player in the offside position was involved in play because he was "screening" the keeper. I don't think he was impacting the play at all, but I can see why they might argue it. Especially from the sideline it can be tough to judge if the offside player was directly in front of the keeper or off to the side.
