lucy is watching a real match that took place between man city and monaco.the manager. right now i have a clear view of what went wrong in terms of the left back‘s positioning. do you see more detail of the players and their bodies from this, rather than watching back on the match video? yeah, i think so, because you are on their level and there is so much value in appreciating the picture they saw. so for the first time this is all portable. you can bring the match analysis loaded on an sd card or usb stick, load it onto the headset, put it in your bag and bring it with you, so if you are in the hotel the night before you can review the opponent's tactics from anywhere on the pitch. but to play against their virtual goalkeeper you have to be back on the wired version. vr, especially in contact sports, it takes out any chance of injury and it is more controllable and the fatigue level can be lower. i think it is really cutting edge, and we are glad to be getting involved in that space. you did quite well. spencer kelly with the nation's hopes on his shoulder
