VAR technology is a great helper for referees, if they know how to work with it. It's been a few years since technology arrived in the conservative football environment to monitor potential offsides, penalties, red card fouls and the like. But the technology is not flawless (some statements still stand in the way), not even in the Premier League, which is considered the best football league in the world. The football world is aware of the ills of this technology (or the people who control it). So there will be a modernization, in which iPhones will also participate.

And how will it all work? With the help of dozens of iPhones all over the field (there will always be one in every stadium) miniAt least 28 iPhones 14 and later) will capture high-frame rate video and feed it into a software tool that will allow the smartphones to work together. The video will be processed by the system in use. Given the number of cameras, each player will be monitored by 7000 to 10000 data points during the match. Until now, it was 30 to 50. The system should even be able to detect potential offside. So what can we expect from the new feature? Higher accuracy and less delay in decision-making. "We believe that by using the latest and most accurate technology available, the time required for offside decisions will be significantly reduced, along with the consistent application of offside lines,” said Premier League director of football Tony Scholes. But we will see how it will work in practice.
