2026 World Cup: Sensor technology at the center of the Swedish victory
In the 2026 World Cup matches, the Swedish national team recorded an impressive 4-1 victory over the Tunisian national team. The main event that drew media attention was the confirmation of the Swedes' fourth goal, scored by Mattias Svanberg in the 86th minute, following a meticulous check by the VAR system.
According to the Akharinkhabar channel, Sweden's fourth goal was officially confirmed after the intervention of the technology. The Football 360 channel (Ft360_ir) added that the decision was made "immediately after Svanberg's entry onto the field."
The professional controversy surrounding the goal was resolved using the sensor embedded in the tournament's official ball. As reported by both channels, a 14-gram sensor is installed inside the ball that performs "500 samples per second" at a frequency of 500 Hz. These data allow the VAR system to track the "speed, spin, and trajectory" of the ball with great precision.
According to Akharinkhabar, the system helped resolve the question of contact between the ball and the player Isak, which led to the confirmation of the goal. The Iranian sports channels emphasize the technological innovation as a decisive factor in the fairness of the game in the current tournament.
