[Saba Sports News] According to British media reports, due to issues encountered during testing, the Premier League may not introduce the new semi-automated offside technology until 2025. Reports indicate that the Dagon system from American software company Second Spectrum was originally scheduled for trial next month, but due to problems discovered during testing, the trial has been postponed. The long-awaited semi-automated offside technology may not be introduced until next year. It is reported that this system uses special cameras along with artificial intelligence technology to determine whether players are offside; this technology has already been successfully used in the 2024 European Championship, Champions League, and World Cup. According to the original plan, it was set to be introduced into the Premier League next month. However, club officials were informed at a meeting on Thursday that further testing is needed for the system, which may delay its introduction until 2025. What do fans of the Premier League think about the delay in introducing semi-automated offside technology?
