LOSER JPN BYE
1- The exact position of the ball with respect to the field of play is a single coordinate point (x,y) located in the center of the ball. It is not an area but a point.
2- The height of the ball (z) does not matter to determine if the ball is inside or outside the field
3- If the ball is resting on the ground, the position of the ball, that single point coincides with the point of the ball that makes contact with the ground
4- The position of the ball does not depend on the size of the ball
5- If the center of the ball is on the wide line, even at one end the ball has not yet come out
6- If the center of the ball is outside the line, the coordinate of the ball x,y is outside, therefore the ball is outside the field regardless of the fact that because it is a large part of the sphere it may be above the line
Lol. Crying Spain…..any part of the ball touch the line is still good.🤣
Blue Lock is real 😂😂😂 Congrats Japan!!! 🎌
Wins a win
The fact that Japan could score 2-1 against Spain the first place is enough, like give them millimeters as handicap
See 0:11
It was in because de rule said if the Ball touchess the line from top point view its in
The ball was actually on the line more than in the picture. The bar in the photo is not straight along the goal line, and you can still see the pole beside the bar.
Puma is very proud
Its a Goal! Go Japan!🇵🇬
Yes, i do think the ball wasn't 100% out of the line.
my only concern with this is when the ball hits the player foot is not when the ball stops. it can still travel a little bit depending on how the ball is struck over the line… when you are dealing with minute mm's how can we be sure the ball hasn't travelled further in the act of kicking it….
thinking what is wrong with this idiot
Ok ESPN, why don’t you use the VAR pic shot from right above ? The ball wasn’t 99% out, more like 85% which explained clearly why the ball was still alive. I guess it HAS to be controversial for TV.
I believed the technology applied to the ball is not perfect
Good win Japan. I've fallen in love with their team. They're my team of the tournament.
Spain, you deserved to win. The ball was completely out. I love Japan but …I hope Japan didn't give $ to the FIFA
Just the fact that Japan was even in contention to make it out of groups is remarkable. When you get locked in a Group with European titans Germany and Spain, that is usually the Group of Death.
I hope that the outer part of the line determined the size of the football field!!!!😀
The goal is legit!! Bravo Japan!!!
Ball was 95% out, Germany is 100% out.
