person is still a person involved it's not an automatic technology or system but it's someone who has to put the line somewhere and there's still the. so these two things have to be taken into consideration so we will have very accurate line but at the end it's still when is the moment the ball is played and also where the. placing the line so that the third element and the last one is then the on food money tours also here we tested where do we place to monitor where can we save time and what's the best location and we did try ours when we started two thousand and six in japan we did trials in south korea last year and then russia and abu dhabi i think we now have found the best. solution for the world cup. how we do it there it's a special outdoor monitor that sun rain all the sense to be considered of course and at the end also when the referee arrives that he can see immediately immediately the right thing because when we started we gave the referee on the

pitch different angles and look at this and this and this and he said look i simply don't have the time so give me just the one where you are convinced that there was a clear so all these things we went through a thousand times just to really provide the best camera angle in the fastest possible time and what is also very important different to all the leaks is we will have an own offside station working station with in the year our set up and i tell you why because we also learned to have seen over the time that when a goal is scored the players are celebrating and suddenly after a minute or something you were featured on a local story. it was offside so we said ok we want to be sure that this time is very very short we go to him to the maximum so we set everything that we can every where we can help the referee to make a wary eye. fast decision here would support football at the end so we have one.

one of them will be always one of the top additional. referees linesman who will sit there together with an owner operator just for decision that we can be very very quick and that we can save time to get through this the vast and i mean we're . very big and very young. in the who will have four systems there because we were always want to have one backup system for the last day of the group stage we have. two matches at the same time so we will have a set up of four. one main be free eighty years so they're helping each other as i said one is only for the off side situations another want to steer in case. the part of the fall is about x. for this is one of the cycle so we have to be year over year is working very

closely with an operator together so they're also training together they're working to together since now many many weeks a month so they know each other very well they speaking the same language they know each other they know exactly when they are saying something that the operators immediately known ok he knows this and that we have the eight years of what is the a.t.o. this system be doing he is following live in the moment when the checking in incident because as you know football is flowing again that means it could be that the ball is not out of play and he's checking something and someone else has to follow the live match so that a.b. r. is just following the life and in case something occurs there another incident then he can take the moment and then. exactly then we have the third one as asserted the offside one and the fourth one who tries to provide the best communication between all the different the air. in this in the center so it's. not

a complex but it's really i would say set up that for all the different scenarios that can happen provides the best possible information in the shortest possible time what measures are you what ideas are you bringing into that commit first of all minimize it but also keep us view as the fans and detain and for the moment it goes to an official review there will be a screen in the stadium showing ok this is the view there will be also the information about the final decision and the reason for it so no go offside for example and in addition after the decision is made there will be also decisive angle shown in the stadium so that means we really hope with this process we really cover everything or we could be as much a stress parent as possible. i

was i was. i. after three years of conflict it has been estimated that out of a population of twenty seven point four million twenty two point two million people in yemen are in need of humanitarian assistance so why are the u.s. and u.k. so committed to the saudi u.a.e. war. rather they see should you go to one of them more so if you be in luck

because. the bus route. that's me might want to i mean i well me and i don't know but the fantasy of. going to. move to. one of those was a. dumb move to move me. to school. only in the spirit in the prison instead of instead of a watchman of blood from

a policeman in the. winter with a mint oh is that and there have none he moved can you hear me. diminish . them. for the current fee for president giani infancy and it was not personally involved in the decision to award the world cups to either russia who will host in twenty twenty two so my suspicion was that perhaps to put his own touch of this tournament

he has made his very own pet project and once a fee for headquarters in syria to asking whether that was the case. the president the fever instead using a balance of the world cup can you go and see that it's going to be a success it will be a success definitely it will be a success because there will never be a correct decision which would be changed into a wrong decision but there will be wrong decisions which will be corrected into a right decision so there are only upsides there are no downsides i don't understand why you have to be so perfect in the game do we really want that well we want to be as fair as possible in the game and that's why i always would need referees. referees there to take a decision hopefully the right decision when. one when one something is committed which is not in accordance with the laws of the game so. if

again. a game in the world cup an important game but any game. is decided because of a mistake or for every good place. and happen. it's not right if we can correct it we felt that this has a detrimental impact on the game if you decide a world cup on the. offside goal on the on the on the hands goal. it doesn't feel. right because maybe twenty thirty years ago you wouldn't have the chance to be sure about it today you can end where you're not sure because sometimes even the video images there of you on the present security and it's always the referee obviously who decides based on his own interpretation so we just help the referee will give him

a tool. to be able to correct a potential biggest and they are is one minute per game. and they decide the game so we can lose one minute per game if this has an impact on the result does not make an impression on you that fans are very confused and people who are actually active inside football have really nothing good to say about it which is your losses i was very positive when we got to december you know i couldn't see anything good and i can't see anything good coming out of it. at all this is a guy who's played the game and obviously director foodborne to function. it's going to ruin the game for the house of the thing to think these are people big big experienced people this is this is not right all the system as it's designed is not right there's a lot make like an impression where you might think my jumping the gun here should just give it a little bit more time and not be implemented in what you say such

a big tournament as well i think in a big tournament like the world cup we have to implement the best tools that we have to. disposal for for the referees to take the right the correct decisions. in the games. there are many. football players and coaches have expressed also very positive. opinions about this is mainly linked to the experience of course that is made obviously when you lose one match because of v.a.r. it's before it was maybe the fall of the referee now it would be the. v.a.r. when you take the examples and i think up in. in england where this was tested. these were the first games and the first games in italy for example the season where all the games have been played or in portugal the first match days in

germany as well there were heavy heavy criticisms. then their phrase get used the players get used to coaches get used the public. gets used and the whole perception is changing as well when it comes to the world cup referees they are now capable of taking a decision in twenty seconds whereas one year ago it took them one minute but it's only for four of the world cup references that will work with and the pros was there on they were not as close to the world cup so their experience going in to the world cup would be very much like you say that in the beginning it's a league germany where the you know everyone was confused and when to use it not just so that you my driscoll having the same kind of problems that i was and the early part of the trial. while i don't think so we don't think so because.

the referees who are going to the world cup they are preparing the use of the us for two years. since two years we have started in training them the team on the pierluigi collina is in charge of doing that and they are ensuring that all the reference will be at the level that they have for tested it that they are all capable of using the best possible care and you're not afraid at all that you just giving the referees an excuse not to make a decision. oh i'm not doing that let me just go and see because that can happen well you know many many things going to happen but i think that the referees who go to the world cup they have enough personality to take the things that they have to take and to consult an additional tool that they have at their disposal if they feel that they have to go that. there is no doubt that vast impact has been felt in

the first week of the tournament it wasn't used at all in the opening few days but made its debut today in the first game of day three and making headlines in the process france and so on gray's man was a once a benefit he was awarded a penalty against australia after a penalty claim was taken two. after looking at the footage of the referee decided that france did deserve the spot kick and after all that chris meant himself converted it to one of those schools and it's fair to say that australia's manager good friend mavic didn't agree with that decision and he was that left fuming saying i hope that maybe one time there will be a referee who is very honest when you're in that moment on your own you have to go to that video screen i saw him standing there the body language wasn't he didn't know from my position and then you have to take a decision france australia it's very difficult but when it's also difficult to

decide when a referee for fifty thousand people on his back must a side when it's doubting. i have to say i'm with the australia boss and the evidence i don't think was conclusive and having seen it at least fifteen times over i'm still not convinced and i have a little bit of sympathy with phenolics frustration the aim of this technology is to eradicate referee mistakes from the game and i'm not sure that that was what happened in that situation later that day who was awarded the penalty by value decision. and again there was real doubt many juge of the poor video footage available in the end the penalty was kicked over the bar so there's no need to make a song and dance out of that situation sweden where next up to enjoy a bit of fortune courtesy of the referee from salvador didn't see much wrong when south korea's a young you only put a tackle in place and inside the pendency box but the valar assistant did and after

watching it on his pitch side manager referee joel correctly awarded sweden a penalty which was put in the back of the net by skipper and dias conquest the only goal in that match and it's safe to say that that was a game changing intervention so violence been far from convincing up till now many of service mean prudent thing that diego costa's first goal for spain against portugal should have been taken to a clearly hit the portuguese defend the paper in the nick in the run up to the goal but neither the referee or the vos ist and reacted and the goal stood the controversy continued on the evening of day five when tunisia was awarded a penalty by the referee against england in volgograd that decision was one hundred percent correct but there were at least two incidents late in the game that should have been looked at a vince dangerman hurricane was clearly held down and gravel to the floats twice

and should have been awarded penalties in my opinion in both situations the issue for me is that both incidents appear to be worse than the penalty that was actually awarded and after the game feat i admitted it would have to take at howard look at why there was no reaction from either the match referee all divide team back in moscow staring at the footage so the question is this voc working but it needs from all time to develop before being introduced into a championship of the magnitude of the. we'll call before the tournament kicked off i was a doubter i didn't think it was ready and i thought it couldn't work in football in two thousand and eighteen but you know what i'm actually pleasantly surprised don't don't get me wrong voght is not one hundred percent. but at its current state of development it's good enough to be useful by having it here at this world cup the experience will ensure that important lessons are learned understanding will

improve and it could make the game fairer after all so this is my position now and two months ago i was directly opposed to it but knowing that it was inevitable to be introduced into the game and having seen it work in the first round of the world cup i now think it's pretty cool and i also think that the referees and devide assistants they've done a pretty good job overall. so far so good see you next time on the peter schmeichel show. get a phone no i don't know what was the last time that you went on the internet no i'm

not using these village is it safe it is. a sure there's new music series there and they'll all get maybe should be the baby does a glossy his that is but. basically we're doing it we thought. is dead as part of that as it could be if. that was what i was. previously. yes. they are being false forms in a very useful member of the society. and.

day seven of the feed for world cup has wrapped up in russia the final whistle has been blown in because on in the last game of the day where spain has topped iran one nil. i. also on wednesday saudi arabia and morocco are the first teams to be eliminated from the tournament after falling two of y. and portugal respectively. last we talked to the former free for president sepp

blatter who announced russia as the host nation back in two thousand and ten about his impressions of the current tournaments. this was the best start to ever because it's my eleven spoke up and when i arrived yesterday i saw it a little bit this my both. my broadcasting live for right from our studios in moscow this is our team international i'm john thomas certainly glad to have you with us now a whole week has passed since the biggest party on the planet kicked off right here in russia and there are still another three weeks in the world cup to go all the details as well as the latest updates let's go to our special studio on the very center of moscow. it's another beautiful site for you on this moscow evening i wish i could say the football has been so beautiful it might not have been the high scoring games if it intriguing in a very different way on wednesday peter schmeichel on saddam hussein three results

the last of which is just finished and it was spain which he stopped confidently predicted they were going to be the round but it was kind of scrappy that often in this match. scrappy yes and very very exciting in the last fifteen minutes iran actually had the ball in the net that we all thought that dates but the linesman the cable side and it was taking two of our decision we thought it was one one and it was going to be it was going to be an even interesting more interesting and to the game which spain did it and they are as i said on many occasions probably the best team in this tournament. and you know they played the game exactly the way they had to do it and came away with three points which puts and firmly back in control of this group this was the goal it came from the strike a diego costa i don't know how much he knew about it down to four minutes just going to say you didn't really come from him did it and it was

a ricochet the defender resigned with a lot yeah he was really serious that goal and it's the second time we see that goal scored with with a neat what's also really really interesting is that the colors kiss the iran manager he said his team up really defensive and many times when you play like that each should have you play on a wave this is how you play and as long as it's going good it's going good then spain scored and then it's not going good anymore now can you change is does iran have a plan b. and he took the put on your hand but cash who is going in the dutch as to be shown for twenty one goals this season the first asian player ever to become top scoring in a western european leak put him on and change the game play two up front and actually for the last ten minutes of the game to run totally dominated and they had a once a chance after chance because that would be an exaggeration but there was

a little bit units a day they had. opportunities with process after the next and then right right to the very very end they had to. a throw in which was supposed to be long and he was doing the acrobatic one way made a somersault and the referee stopped him from doing it and he looked at him so ok i'll just put it he put it to a cross today and even then they had an opportunity and i'm still feeling like it's just. like it's going to be part of like a collective. honestly just be like our support. with great people to make the pitch people it's unbelievable it's the best. you know. the numbers we love how we're amazed by. me playing sports i think it's not so pretty on me but i think this opportunity to come and cheer for our team.

to study. because i believe you know. i they play portugal in their last game with us my question do you think that they will go with a more attacking approach because they've shown they can do it i think i think what they'll do is. that they will trying to keep the good all the quiet i think the lessons that we've learned from watching for sure going against morocco and portugal and again spain is a portugal at this moment in time have not found any form they don't play well as the two and the one player that's shining above everyone in the tournament is playing in that see where that is of course right now although he's top score so far he scored four goals they have to win now against portugal that would put around three in portugal out do you give them a chance of based on the the two different rounds that we've seen you see the table

here said they report to him they have to win and you've seen the defensive on the board checking around can they do it if i'm. those curves will be disappointed we lost this game i would be very pleased with my part of my players performance and i would think if i had this situation i could choose a situation two games ago i would definitely pick it i think they're in a great position they played well enough more than wanted to beat portugal that's why honest opinion about spain just so off the unlucky iranians i would say one nil watching the game was. tough luck for iran at the cousin arena losing by one goal to spain with universal admission by experts and fans alike that they were very unlucky and they played very well in the last it seems that the team the manager in somewhat of an upbeat mood i had of their ultimate kalash their decisive clash against portugal they team's manager called

a skater speaking at the press conference said that it's too early to rule use contrie out i think. we deserved from the morning and it is not of much better than doing the game. so going to relation to yeah to go to the wonderful players and also from our side. thank you very much what have you seen with the spanish players and spend spend in fourteen will be able to learn during the screen i managed to catch up with my old friend side of the striker of the national team who also played very well that was unlucky not to score in several occasions he also seems to be very positive i had of the ultimate clash against cristiano ronaldo sports you go. and but i don't like it today i hold it against portugal we have. we must have a little chance and i hope. we win and

we have the to price the valar the goal that was disallowed so. what is the team feel like to each do. you've been wrong. it was offside yeah. we knew it was offside but as. i don't want to say nothing to their face the spanish players obviously wore in a very positive mood although admitted that this game was really tough to win credit to iran for putting on such a performance and even as men and iranian players and the manager also praised their fans the atmosphere inside the cars on arena was scintillating was very very loud probably one of the loudest thought before it's a fire in the course of this world cup so now it goes to the last game in this group which will decide who goes next to the last sixteen spain portugal or iran. it's a lot more clear cut in group a and this is how it sounds now after today's result

we saw a year ago i defeat saudi arabia now you know there's a lot of expectation that you know one might wolf way with this quite easily up to russia but. if the saudis but he's very different just won't go next was it people when we didn't get it loose wire explaining going on he's one hundred appearance for you to quiet and the result is you're quite free and russia referred to which is in the russian capital when that goal went in because it means that against a lot of printout of an expectation russia or through what do you think of the euro coins in a state where they're definitely not firing on all set in this they've they've got a lot of room to to improve you can argue with two games six points that this is this is proper protocol to fix if tournament playing stuff you don't play your best game in the first the first game of the six you don't peak in the coupe face you know just try to get through the coupe face and then you progress from there so you

know we know we know the qualities of the euro grind seem we always name will come on ian and then suarez you got players in there that can school goals so as long as you have this this kind of quality up front you would always make the results you always schooled. we did good much but that is what you have somebody out there when somebody has been. so ideally what and leading. and i think you know it by. a good. five months you know by. next wednesday when they would be that good much with a big.
