Which is down to PGMOL and the refs rather than the technology. It should be used as it was designed and not how you think it should. As someone who spent all my working life in engineering, I get really hacked off when people use technology outside of its design parameters and then blame the...

There have been a number of discussions around accuracy due to frame rates, camera angles etc which will impact accuracy. Goal line technology works because of fixed camera positions which are calibrated for each goal. That’s accuracy is not possible for the cameras used for VAR.

VAR is a tool that is designed to be operated within a set of parameters. Use it outside of those parameters then it won’t work as advertised. It isn’t a case of being too scientific, just that it’s being used incorrectly and that is down to PGMOL.
