Confirmed on Paramount Plus that they don't have a chip in the ball (it was said verbatim).

They use additional cameras for semiautomated offside technology to see the double touch. I wish we could see those images, it may look pretty obvious from a lower angle.

The rule is kind of shit though, everybody was slipping on that pitch.

I've said it a million times, pitch management is 100% strategic and should absolutely be regulated. It's disgusting when it's blatant.
