More technology will be used in the European Nations Cup "Euro 2024", which will be held in Germany next summer, to reduce the margin of error in football by referees.
According to the British newspaper The Times, a special electronic chip will be used inside the European Nations Cup balls.
According to the newspaper, this chip will determine for the referees the time at which the ball leaves the player’s foot before it reaches his teammate in order to resolve many offside situations. This chip will also help in drawing an electronic image for the video referees to determine the place where the ball touched any player, if there is doubt about a penalty kick from the player. A hand touch or similar command.
The European Championship will be held in Germany from June 14 to July 14, 2024. The Russian national team will not participate in the tournament due to the suspension of the European Football Association (UEFA).
Last July, FIFA proposed changing the offside rules, as an attacking player is supposed to be offside in a situation where his entire body is in front of another defensive player.
