Before the show and live broadcast of the World Cup officially begins, let’s review some of the most interesting information on the sidelines of the 2022 World Cup today.
New technology catches new offside at FIFA World Cup 2022
According to the latest official announcement from FIFA, the 2022 World Cup will be a tournament using offside technology. This is a tool to support referees, helping to minimize decision-making time by an average of 70 seconds through the current off-line video playback to 20-25 seconds.
In addition, FIFA also gave a plan for the audience to cheer and those watching through the television waves were able to watch 3D images illustrating decisions related to offside that the organizers showed.
This technology has been tested at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia and the initial steps have brought certain effects. Through collaboration with Adidas and a variety of different partners, the organization has been and continues to improve the technology systems that support the sport of kings.
Using 12 specialized tracking cameras mounted under the roof of the stadium, the new technology can simultaneously track 29 data points of each striker at a rate of about 50 times per second as well as compute exact position right on the field.
Particularly, the official ball used at the Qatar 2022 World Cup will also be integrated with an inertial measurement sensor, which can send ball data to the video control room with a frequency of about 500 times / s, so that the referees can detect the player’s kick point most accurately.
Through the perfect combination of AI-powered ball data, the new technology provides automatic offside warnings at all times and takes only a few seconds. Thanks to that, the referee will make faster and more accurate decisions, making the matches as fair and objective as possible.
It is known that the tests are still taking place before officially being applied to the world’s largest football tournament, thereby serving as a basis to help it be widely applied to tournaments from big to small.
Paul Pogba will be absent from the 2022 World Cup?
During the recent trip to the US, Paul Pogba suffered a right knee meniscus injury and this may be the reason why the French team lacks the dedication of this striker.
Immediately after the injury, many people believe that the black star only needs about 2 months to recover his fitness. However, after a thorough examination, it seems that Pogba’s situation is much more serious. He will most likely have to undergo an operation and it will take a minimum of 6 months to return to the pitch. Thus, the 29-year-old midfielder will not be able to contribute to the national team and pity to watch his teammates fight through the small screen.
In the tactical system of coach Deschamps, Pogba is a very important player, so his every move is being watched and considered extremely carefully.
