But from that angle it could easily be a foot in. Might as well show a picture from the back of the stand at the opposite end. Not sure what point you're making.Look at this angle, surprising to think that that it (probably) was in!

I'm particularly DELIGHTED that the thug Rudiger, who took the piss out of the Japanese winger with his comedy high-stepping run is out.
And people didn't waste any time with the memes...

Just that, based on that image, I would definitely say it was out. Ball looks close to the ground and well over, I appreciate its a trick of the angles though.
But it's like a cricketer appealing for LBW when fielding at square leg.

I think this highlights the case why VAR is essential, football can be about fine margins, prior to VAR that goal wouldn't have stood and Germany would still be in the world cup so it is absolutely imperative the decision is correct. Otherwise we'd be having the opposite argument how Japan were robbed and Germany are jammy etc, we need technology now etc....
With VAR there's no after debate or argument to have where a 3rd party has arbitrated and made a decision which we all have to accept
There's no way the human eye can make that decision in real time even if they were right next to it

Does the white line look a bit wide to anyone? More to the point, do you think it might look a bit wide to a German?
The FA says 'The lines must be of the same width which must not be more than (12cm) 5 inches'.
(Note that 12 cm is actually less than 5 inches. It's 4.72441 inches instead. Not that I would want to be called a pedant).

Good old Jimmy Hill was the best at explaining it
@GT49er would still not accept it.

If the line was painted a little wider then this opens up a whole new can of worms....
The ball was definatley not 100% out. All the angles we are being provides are not over the ball.

It's been a while since I was 1.88mm in.

If that is a real photo, then I think it's taken after he kicked it and the ball is quite high in the air at that point

What do you mean?
Meh. That's the photo they've released, but there's another one taken a split second later where the ball has actually crossed the line and you can see green between the line and the ball. That one will stay hidden away in the FIFA vaults for ever. And we never landed on the moon, Trump won the 2020 election and 9/11 was an inside job.
Regardless they'll be talking about the 'Hand of VAR' goal for a long time!

You know what I mean. VAR for fucks sake. Sucking the life out of the game.
