Law 11.2 states that when “a player in an offside position is moving towards the ball with the intention of playing the ball and is fouled before playing or attempting to play the ball, or challenging an opponent for the ball, the foul is penalised as it has occurred before the offside offence”.
Apparently the penalty should have been given.

Sillyness to the max on that one. At least the game went our way.
