British tabloid ‘The Sun’ claims that Marcus Rashford and his manager Erik ten Hag are barely on speaking terms since the captain partied with a friend in Belfast and called in sick to avoid training before the FA Cup game against Newport County. Although, publicly, the manager has forgiven him and said he has moved on, it still hurts that he tried to lie to him about some of the details of his absence.

Marcus Rashford, who has a serious, mature profile, surprised Manchester United fans in mid-January when, after scoring in a 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur, he travelled to Belfast to party for two days with a friend in Northern Ireland. The partying went on longer than planned, so, unfit to train for the match against Newport County in the FA Cup, he called in sick to the club.

Erik ten Hag eventually found out what had happened, as did the British press, who claim they have barely spoken to each other since. More specifically, it is the tabloid ‘The Sun’ that brought this information to light. Although the tactician, in his press conferences, has shown a posture of forgiveness and of having turned the page, it seems that, behind the scenes, he does not speak to his captain very much.

If true, the Dutchman is not allowing it to influence his decisions on the pitch, having started him against Wolves, West Ham United, Aston Villa, Luton Town and Fulham in his side’s most recent Premier League outings. In fact, against Wolves it was his first appearance on the pitch after the controversy and he silenced his critics with a goal.

However, he has failed to score in the last four games, and even so, his coach has continued to put his faith in him. With just five goals in 31 appearances this season, the home-grown player is suffering a slump in a career that, in last season’s campaign – 30 goals in 56 appearances – looked set to continue to rise in line with United’s progress in the Champions League.

Technology in Football: How Technology Is Shaping the Future of Football

Football will have no choice but to use technology as society increasingly relies on it. BeSoccer

Future football might look very different as technology plays a bigger and bigger role in the game. The fundamentals of the game as they are now won’t alter, but technological support could increase player numbers and enhance spectator experiences.

Almost 160 years have passed since the first set of universal football regulations were drafted, and football has advanced absurdly. Football will have no choice but to use technology as society increasingly relies on it.

Technology and Training

The most obvious way technology will be employed in football is in training, where it will improve players and help them reach new heights. Numerous tools are already used to gather enormous amounts of data, including heart rate monitors, GPS trackers, sophisticated monitoring and video systems, apps to track official games, and drone-recorded training sessions.

Enhancing performance can result from information analysis. Technology can help optimize training regimens, establish game strategy, and even help spot abnormalities, patterns, or changes in player performance that may suggest an impending injury. One example is the German national team’s use of Adidas smart jerseys, which track distance, speed, and pulse.

Predicting Injuries

One can employ artificial intelligence, which can forecast when an injury might occur or maintain a player in peak condition, which is crucial for identifying marginal performance increases. For instance, the artificial intelligence tool Zone7, which gathers information from wearables, fitness tests, and medical profiles to recognize players who may be injured, is already being used by more than 50 clubs worldwide.

Coaches can use the system’s green, yellow, and red signs to determine whether to reduce training intensity for a certain player based on their daily risk level.

Soccer Goal Line Technology

Goal-line technology is desperately needed in soccer, especially since there are so many instances where the TV replay might show incorrect calls made by the referee, such as whether the ball crossed the goal line or not and if the goal was awarded. This can, however, be a disappointment to those users on casino websites placing bets on teams to score. Similar technology has been effectively used in American football, tennis, and cricket, and the spectators have generally embraced it.

Semi-Automated Offside Technology

Following successful experiments at prior FIFA tournaments, semi-automated offside technology was implemented for the first time in soccer history for the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar. To precisely determine in real time if offside has occurred, this offside decision-making technology uses 12 cameras positioned around the field.

These cameras track multiple data points on the ball and each player at 50 times per second. Additionally, the technology uses a signal from a sensor inside the ball to calculate each player’s exact position on the pitch. The video match officials get this data and can forward it to the central referee.

VAR – Video Assistant Referee

At the 2018 World Cup in Russia, FIFA employed video replays, also known as Video Assistant Referee, or VAR, to help with referee decisions for the first time. This came after a few years of successful trials. Reviewable calls fall into four categories: goals, red card decisions, penalty judgments, and identity errors when awarding cards. Reviewing video replays of the event, the video assistant referee can identify obvious mistakes and use a wireless radio to communicate that information to the central referee, who wears a headset.

Summing it Up

Technology is developing at an alarming rate. Thus, it will soon be tested to see if it can enhance the world’s biggest and most cherished sport.

However, there are drawbacks and resistance to it, and implementing it on this scale might take a lot of work. Nevertheless, football players, teams, commentators, and fans will all have thrilling times in the upcoming ten years.
