cyderspaceman Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I was wondering how the stats were compiled for 'distance covered' etc. I couldn't find an answer on here, so for anyone who doesn't know, apparently it works like this :- Three HD cameras in various locations at each arena use image recognition to recognize the 22 players, three referees, and the ball. The system tracks the XYZ coordinates of each of the objects, and then relays the information to a multi-screen, digital workstation where 74 people pore over the data on-site, aided by another 20 back inItaly. The reason Deltatre uses cameras to optically track everything is that players have resisted adding tracking technology into their equipment—such as their shoes —despite it being possible for some time.

buchan30 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/44550244 . Classic World Cup nonsense. “Does his best to emulate banks save” yeah, im sure as he was diving for that he was thinking “finally, my chance to emulate the banks save” rather than it just being an instinctive dive and save. Wankers. Eta: this could have went in one of three forums. This one, pttgoyn or terrible journalism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pub car king Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Why are all the teams wearing their away kits? We've had iceland vs Argentina, Denmark vs Australia and most stupidly of all Iran (home kit white away kit red) vs Spain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merkie84 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I can't remember a World Cup ( or indeed any tournament) where so many teams have lost ( or won) both their opening 2 fixtures. From groups A-C Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Morocco and Peru all on 0. Looking at upcoming fixtures: Nigeria will have 0 if they lose to Iceland, Costa Rica if they lose to Brazil, South Korea if they lose to Mexico, Panama and Tunisia if they lose to England and Belgium. Poland or Columbia if there is a victor in their match. None of those results are wildly beyond what you might expect, maybe only Nigeria against Iceland will get a point or 3. Unfortunately it is shaping up to be a dull final round of group games, lacking the usual tension , excitement and drama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
