People will just blame Cucurella here since he’s the deepest defender and it’s easy/fun/popular to just shit on him, but this is pretty much entirely on Badiashile. Cucu isn’t much deeper than Silva when the pass is made - this isn’t a failed offside trap, so much as Badiashile charging out of position for no reason, as Ugochukwu was already closing down the pass/shot.
