Correct me if I'm wrong, but you cannot be offside from a corner kick until the ball touches a player after the kick. Right?
(I understand the situation was about a free-kick, just seeking clarification on the corner kick part)
yes, because the offside line is the the actual ball line. Opponent players(excluding the goalie) can give "conditional position" if they are in front of the ball though.
Since in corner kicks the line of the ball is the same as the line of the goal there cant be an offside, unless someone touches the ball after like you said.
The same happens when 2 players are ahead of the whole opponent team, but if the player with the ball passes to someone who is behind him its ok.
