All of the teams in attendance at today’s Premier League shareholders meeting approved the implementation of semi-automated offside technology.

 

The technology is expected to be ready to be implemented after one of the autumn international breaks, and the new system will be utilized for the first time in the Premier League the following season.

 

Supporters will have a better in-stadium and broadcast experience thanks to the technology, which will also provide high-quality broadcast graphics and enable faster and more consistent placement of the virtual offside line based on optical player tracking.
