FIFA saying the curvature of the ball had not crossed the line so it was still in

Here's one that people are reposting on Twitter that shows how angles work: https://twitter.com/JamesTMaw/status/821038042555305984

ITV showing the pictures showing the ball in play while moaning they don’t have the pictures? WTF?

The one image shows it was clearly still on the line.

It didn't cross the line. It also pretty much confirms that England's "goal" in 1966 final didn't cross the line either. I think that's what the pundits are mad about.

Exactly!

They’re shouting all the odds and never addressed that image - it’s mental!

Looking from the above image, it appears that it didn't. At the end of the day, the Germans only have themselves to blame for being in that position going into the final game. A final game they made hard work of.

Spain are now in England's half of the draw, incidentally. France or England v Spain or Portugal in the quarters and semis looks pretty tasty

What do you mean no way? You know the whole curvature of the ball has to be outside of the line right? That image for me shows part of that curve still matching up with the line. It's tight but still on it.

The ball is in play.

Anyway, the other image is more conclusive.

Looking at the images of the England 1966 final "goal" what so people now think about its validity?

Is this another thing that separates normal people from stupid people?

If the crossbar was aligned to the chalk it would be even more in play

Yep. It's conclusive for me it was in by a mm or 2.

Japanese deserved to win

Without seeing a view from above the ball then you can not really determine. But it did look a good 2-3 inches over from behind the player.

Above?

Ffs when the ball is on the deck it’s a 2D decision. Anywhere on the axis of the goal line is fine.
