Tennis and rugby had video refs about twenty years before soccer did. Rugby is a much more complex game than soccer, so the implication must be something in referee culture. Football fans act as if this is something new and complicated.
I second the comment about all the advertising. It's hideous.

Thanks for the pro tip.
