New footage reveals controversial goal in West Hams victory over Arsenal

Controversy surrounds Soucek's goal

New footage has emerged that allegedly proves Tomas Soucek's goal in West Ham's 2-0 victory over Arsenal should have stood. The goal, which was given despite controversy, has left fans questioning why the Premier League does not utilize similar technology.

VAR's check takes over three minutes

Tomas Soucek's goal took VAR three minutes and 22 seconds to review. Officials were checking if the ball had gone out of play before Jarrod Bowen passed to Soucek, who scored. Despite multiple replays, no definitive proof could be shown due to Bowen's body obstructing the ball from the main camera angle.

beIN SPORTS settles the dispute

During their coverage of the Premier League action, beIN SPORTS provided a new shot using their available technology. This shot allegedly shows that the ball was still in play by millimeters. However, this new evidence has sparked further debate among fans as to why the Premier League does not adopt similar technology.

Fans question the Premier League

After the clip was shared on social media, fans expressed frustration with the Premier League's lack of technology. One fan questioned why BeIN Sports can provide this footage while the billion-pound Premier League claims it does not have the technology. Another fan pointed out that the Saudi Pro league uses the technology, raising the question of why the richest league in the world does not.
