The answer

Impurity on clothes is considered to have occurred after the Asr prayer, because the general rule is to attribute an event to its closest time.

If the impurity is semen, ghusl (ritual bath) and repeating the Maghrib prayer are obligatory. If it is pre-seminal fluid (madhiy), then only washing the male organ and performing ablution (wudu') are obligatory.

In case of doubt between semen and pre-seminal fluid (madhiy), ghusl and repeating the Maghrib prayer are obligatory.
