The FIFA Club World Cup presented a novelty in the field of technology in football: the offsides recorded in the tournament are marked by a system with 3D representation and greater accuracy.
Semi-automatic offside technology (SAOT in English) had already been used in the Arab Cup, in November 2021, and works thanks to a system of cameras installed on the roof of the stadiums that identify the movement of players and the ball at different angles. It is an evolution of the video referee in marking offside. The technology was even used in the semifinals to cancel an irregular goal by Al-Ahly against Palmeiras.

“Referees and assistant referees are still responsible for the decision on the field of play. The technology only gives them valuable support to make more accurate and faster decisions, especially when the offside incident is very tight and very difficult,” said FIFA Refereeing Commission President Pierluigi Collina.
The entity explains that there are ten cameras installed in the stadium to track 18 points on the field, providing the position of the players on the field. The number of points is expected to increase to 29 per player by the time of the World Cup, which will be held at the end of the year in Qatar. The process happens in real time and therefore means that decisions can be made faster.
