Tech Tangles in World Cup Drama | Global News
Description
VAR’s tech-driven calls are turning World Cup drama into controversy, with red cards, disallowed goals, and coach outrage fueled by ultra-sensitive sensors and rule tweaks. Switzerland’s Embolo got sent off after VAR overturned a mistaken identity foul, Germany’s knockout came from a barely-there contact call, Croatia’s late equalizer was erased by ball sensors detecting a phantom touch, Egypt’s lead vanished after a VAR rewind found an earlier foul, and Norway’s hopes crumbled as VAR flagged Haaland’s foul before the corner was even taken — all proving that in this tournament, the ball, the tech, and the rules are rewriting the game’s soul.
