Referees use goal-line technology in most FIFA competitions to decide on controversial goals. However, the system relies on cameras, so a smart game ball could be a considerable improvement.

Oh, I love this concept for a smart soccer ball that changes colour when a goal is scored or when the ball goes out-of-bounds.
It seems like the future is already here! The FIFA world cup 2022 ball will feature smart sensors to improve the accuracy of VAR calls.

A cool idea. While VAR has improved accuracy in critical calls, the decision to make the call is left to referees.
