A striking image from the English 2nd division: the match between Hull and Birmingham was delayed on Sunday afternoon after it turned out that one of the goals was too high. The shortcoming was quickly remedied by a grinding wheel.
Before the kick-off between Hull and Birmingham, it was determined that one of the goals was about 5 centimeters too high. The goal post was hastily shortened with a grinding wheel.
That did not completely solve the problem, because once the goal again met the regulations, the goal line technology also had to be recalibrated. After some delay, football could finally be played.
