English Premier League To Adopt Semi-Automated Offside Technology
The Premier League said the intention was to introduce the technology after one of the autumn international breaks – so as early as September or as late as November
Clubs unanimously agreed to introduce the technology next season at a meeting of top-flight teams on Thursday, which sources say is expected to cut the average length of a VAR check for offside by 31 seconds.
The Premier League said the intention was to introduce the technology after one of the autumn international breaks – so as early as September or as late as November.
“The technology will provide quicker and consistent placement of the virtual offside line, based on optical player tracking, and will produce high-quality broadcast graphics to ensure an enhanced in-stadium and broadcast experience for supporters,” a league statement said.
