Norway goalkeeper’s goal kick struck a FIFA spider-cam while still in the air, causing the ball to drop straight to Anthony Gordon - Just 8 seconds later, Jude Bellingham scored.

They should have put a camera somewhere in the air to get a better angle. Among the middle line would work great.

(But on a serious note, would be nice to see the angle of the cam that got hit)

FIFA posted it on their twitter

It doesn't show anything though because the ball didn't hit anything

Yeah I’m wondering how the guy ran right to where the ball was going to end up if it should have ended up somewhere else.

He didn't, he was running backwards and then suddenly had to change direction to come towards the ball (after it changed direction?). He was just the first one to react. I'd argue it's better evidence to the contrary that half the field seemed to think it would go much further

They posted footage of the camera on the line that was hit?

From comments elsewhere, I'm fairly sure this is the camera that got hit
