Ronaldo’s wish for Al Hilal !! – Medina Newspaper

The legendary footballer Cristiano Ronaldo said in a television interview that he hoped that the Cup final between Al Hilal and his club Al Nasr would be a fair match, perhaps he was referring to the controversy caused by video technology and that continues to occupy sports channels and social media about Al Hilal’s right to win all his matches in the league, as well as the number of strikes and penalties awarded in his favor thanks to this technology, as well as the number of opposition players sent off in front of him, the number of mistakes made by Al Hilal players and the technology was not enough to reveal their mistakes and then they were sent off, there is no space here to mention examples that might not be enough to satisfy him he wrote and a small article! Flo This is Ronaldo’s intention and this prompts me to talk about video technology, is it considered a 100% correct way to reveal the truth, the only guarantee of justice in football?

I believe that the complexity of video technology is intertwined with the fact that human deception has been present in this sport since the British invented it decades ago, and that football as a sport does not care about moral sublimity (don’t you agree with me?), while the game of football includes a large number of events and matches involving 22 players who are human beings with good and bad qualities that humans have, and whose only concern is to get the ball into the opponent’s net, therefore, this sport must lack some justice, and the game system is an incentive for players to manipulate details to achieve the goal of scoring!

The video room referee has in his hands many details that may not be enough to reveal to the arena referee in a few seconds, completely or incompletely, intentionally or unintentionally, but which will become clear hours or days after the match. In the match, technology belongs to the category of errors, perhaps the reason why the evaluation of the referee in the human arena is more precise, the most important of which is the inspection of the players’ faces and bodies by the on-site referee. Not from behind the veil of the camera, which can not allow them to be completely sure of the existence of deception, or fabrication and half-perfect performances!

Personally, I enjoyed football more before the invention of video technology than I do now, but as long as it is part of the game, I hope that, as Ronaldo wishes, the referee will triumph over the deaf machine and the game will be won by whoever deserves it, and lost by whoever deserves it – also -!
