The Premier League has produced many controversial incidents in recent seasons which this technology could have helped resolve. Two seasons ago Arsenal were furious when VAR ruled Joe Willock had kept the ball in play before Anthony Gordon scored the only goal of the game for Newcastle. There have been several 'line of sight' offside incidents this season. The 'Out of Bounds' technology uses the same tracking data points and configurations as advanced semi-automated offside. Paris St-Germain's Fabian Ruiz had a goal ruled out through VAR in the Intercontinental Cup final against Flamengo because the ball had gone out.
