I posted an article about offside before. Many fans have doubts and complaints, thinking that football offside is unreasonable, so why not cancel offside? What is certain is that football offside will not be cancelled, but will rely on "semi-automatic offside technology" to make the game call scale stricter. I will explain in today's article why not cancel offside.
Let’s take a look at the comments from the screenshots taken in the comment section of the article!
Of course, some senior fans believe that offside should not be cancelled, otherwise they will lose the fun and competitive sports spirit that football should have.
So why not cancel offside?
Let’s start with the long history of football. We all know that football originated from " Cuju " during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period more than 2,000 years ago. Later, the sport was transmitted to Europe and gradually evolved into modern football.
In the early stages of modern football development, there was no such thing as "offside". There were few restrictions on the rules of the game and single tactics. Backcourt players like to play big feet, and forward players like to ambush the opponent's penalty area. Wherever the ball went, the players were crowded, and the midfield was empty. The huge football field was so redundant! All tactics are for the defender to shoot in the penalty area with big feet, and the forwards in the penalty area bombarded and shot in turn. What are the results? It's the surge in the number of goals. Maybe many fans will say that this is the effect you see? One or two games are OK, will the dozens of World Cup games be exactly the same? Will it cause visual fatigue? What is the difference between going directly into the basketball and hitting the frame? The Dutch legendary star is currently the director of FIFA's technical department, van Basten , once suggested increasing the viewing quality and canceling offside vacancies, which caused great controversy.
Football needs scientific research and rigorous tactics as guidance. Later players gradually realized this and discovered that the profoundness of football. The research on football academics also penetrated into the stadium. The contradiction between offense and defense is composed of the contradiction between offense and defense, and offense and defense are constantly changing to form the entire process of the game. Organization, tactics and formations appeared.
Coaches will analyze different opponents, formulate different plans and strategies, and continuously adjust response plans and players according to the opponent's defensive and offensive tactics. These are all indispensable and critical links in a mature football system. Therefore, football has developed to this day and is becoming more and more systematic and comprehensive.
So the topic that fans are talking about is no longer simply who defeated whom? Whoever scored a few goals also began to analyze the staffing configuration of both sides, the strength of offense and defense, and the comprehensive analysis and reading of the game, which not only increases the viewing quality, but also the spirit brought by competitive sports will also inspire and inspire thought-provoking.
semi-automatic offside technology appeared on the World Cup stage
offside not only did not cancel, but instead became more technological, standardized and advanced.
In this year's Qatar World Cup, we saw the application of new technology, that is, the stage debut of "semi-automatic offside technology"! This technology was put into use as early as last year's Arab competition held by Qatar , and then this technology was used in the European Super Cup and Champions League competitions.
"semi-automatic offside" system consists of two parts: one is that a sensor is installed in the football center, and the sensor will transmit data to the outside world at a frequency of 500 times per second to determine the exact position of the football in real time; the other is that 12 tracking cameras are installed in the stadium, which can not only monitor the position of the football, but also determine the real-time position of each player by tracking 29 points on each player, so as to determine whether the offensive player is offside.
This technology is like "hawkeye" to reduce the average duration of offside penalty from 70s to 25s, improving accuracy while also judging more fairly. However, technology is an auxiliary after all, and the final penalty is determined based on the referee's penalty.
has 3.5 billion football tops the world's top and most popular among fans. How can every change not attract attention? Perhaps one day "offside" will also die with history.
