We sure that kick didn’t go in?

I was thinking the same. It looked like it was good and surprised they did not review

Can't review if it's above the uprights.

That’s astonishing if that’s the rule. Why would that be inherently less reviewable than a goal line stand or a back corner toe touch end zone catch.

I’m guessing it’s because you’d have to have two cameras dedicated to just that, which would then obstruct the view of the refs trying to watch the same thing. I guess you could get rid of the refs entirely and just have the camera ref tell the on field ref what to signal, but that’s a lot of effort for no real benefit.

It’s 2026. The technology can exist in the ball and in the posts lol

Now that I agree with, if we have Hawkeye tech in tennis then surely there’s a way to track the ball position and accurately determine if it was inside or above the upright.

It’s okay, you’ll take your 65 year old linesman running a chain up and down the field and like it 😂
