This movement will prove indestructible, no matter how much spin and concealment are deployed to stop it, no matter how many dollars are spent to counter it.

[Darko @culdarko]

Obvious and indisputable error. If you need sensor in the ball (defender could have touched it) it is not obvious or indisputable, but for that you need to take your noses from Ronaldo’s ass.

[🇺🇸🇩🇪🦉 @jonahcelona]

Apparently the spike in the snickometer was caused by the ball hitting Ruben Dias's arm. If that is so, this will go down as the most disgraceful World Cup match ever played

[Darko @culdarko]

@TSN_Sports @fifa So much about obvious and blatant error that VAR was meant for.

🤬🤬🤬 Croatia wasn’t just robbed vs. Portugal, FIFA is ruining our “Beautiful Game” with ridiculous VAR!

@HNS_CFF treba zatražiti službene odgovore na više pitanja.
1. Kompletnu IT forenziku
2. Tumačenje kose
3. Tumačenje nenamjernog igranja Portugalca

Ne znam postoje li u FIFI takve procedure, tipa prosvjed, traženje objašnjenja.
Iako to neće ništa promijeniti, neka napišu.

They would sooner publish their offshore bank accounts!

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

Even if you have complete faith in this tech 🙄, it requires having similar faith in the FIFA officials who interpret it & announce the results. The lack of transparency at every step makes it hard to believe it wasn’t a transparent robbery to guarantee Ronaldo in the next round.

>no change in trajectory
>no sensor bump when the ball hits the defender

RIGGED

🇭🇷 Croatia got eliminated from the World Cup by a closed-source sensor.

FIFA says the Kinexon chip in the Trionda "proved" Matanović touched the ball. Absolute disgrace. What actually happened: they ran signal processing over 500Hz IMU data from a 14-gram sensor and isolated a supposed contact spike from thousands of noisy samples dominated by bladder harmonics, panel flex, spin wobble and stadium micro-tremors, then nullified one of the most dramatic World Cup equalizers in history via spectral analysis of what is essentially glorified noise.

Oh, and it gets better. They moved the chip this year. Back in 2022, it used to hang suspended in the center of the ball. Now it's glued into the sidewall of ONE panel, with counterweights stuffed into the other three so the ball doesn't fly like a shopping cart. So sensitivity now depends on which side of the ball the "contact" happens relative to the sensor. Totally fine basis for ending a nation's tournament.

An IMU measures acceleration. Somewhere in a proprietary pipeline, a threshold decides which acceleration counts as "touch." That threshold is unpublished. The false positive rate is unpublished. The calibration data is unpublished. The patents are literally still in their secrecy window. And FIFA owns the raw data, so nobody can independently audit the trace that ended Modrić's last World Cup.

And we're all supposed to accept a "heartbeat graphic" on the broadcast as if that settles anything.

Since we sadly all know you won't ever admit your crimes or remove this technology for good, at least open source the detection pipeline, @FIFAcom!

Publish the thresholds, the error rates, the raw IMU trace from last night. If the tech is right, transparency costs nothing, right?

@KPmufc Unproven and untested technology. An experiment.

[Geronimo Morgans @GeronimoMorgans]

Croatia going home because the ball apparently grazed a hair follicle.

This is genuinely the worst decision I've ever seen in my life.

Over-scrutinising football to the point of absurdity. It's killing the game, honestly. Nothing left to say.

[max vrh @maksvrh]

@JeltyTV Absolutely! This "chip" technology is dubious to say the least. It is unproven. What is clear is that the ball did not change trajectory flying past #20 at all and this is what matters. Croatia was robbed. The game of football was robbed.

@culdarko VAR is ok. It is how you use it, or in this case abuse it
