Why was Vinicius goal against Switzerland ruled out for offside?

The Hindu  

Vinicius Jr. looked to have scored the opening goal for Brazil against Switzerland at Stadium 974, only to see it being ruled offside in the FIFA World Cup Group H match on Monday. Vinicius ably controlled the ball, skipped past a challenge and deposited the ball in the goal past Swiss keeper Yann Sommer for what he thought to be the opener. | Photo Credit: FIFA However, Brazil did find the breakthrough late in the second half, when Casemiro broke the deadlock, equalling his World Cup goal tally with Kaka, with the Manchester United midfielder finding his sixth goal for the Selecao. That goal eventually proved to to be the winner as the South American World Cup favourites kept its 100 percent win record in Qatar 2022, intact.
