When Fernandes was requested in regards to the aim, he mentioned, “I don’t really think it matters who scored,” Fernandes mentioned in regards to the first aim.
“The feeling at the time was that he (Ronaldo) touched the ball — I was crossing it to him — but what’s important was we moved into the next round and beat a very big opponent.”
Ultimately, Adidas supplied proof that said that it was Fernandes who scored the aim.
“In the match between Portugal and Uruguay, using the Connected Ball Technology housed in Adidas’s Al Rihla Official Match Ball, we are able to definitively show no contact on the ball from Cristiano Ronaldo for the opening goal in the game,” it mentioned in a press release launched.
“No external force on the ball could be measured as shown by the lack of ‘heartbeat’ in our measurements and in the attached graphic. The 500Hz IMU sensor inside the ball allows us to be highly accurate in our analysis,” the assertion added.
For the uninitiated, there’s a sensor put in contained in the match ball which claims to offer correct outcomes after being rigorously examined earlier than the World Cup.
