La Liga's Footage Quality Makes Matches Look Like Video Games

Fans have been blown away by the insane footage captured by cameras for Barcelona's win over Athletic Bilbao last night.

La Liga have followed in the footsteps of the NFL by increasing their coverage quality to a whole new level. On the broadcast at the Nou Camp, new cameras filmed celebrations for Antoine Griezmann's winning goal in the second half.

It brought viewers closer to the action than ever before, with many feeling as though they were at the stadium or playing a video game such as FIFA 21.

In the NFL, the camera rig, dubbed "the megalodon" was debuted on FOX n December and has been a huge hit after delivering some gorgeous shots and angles.

Contrary to what some fans have said, it is not an 8K camera that is being utilised. But even with parts of the footage out of focus, it really is a game-changer and we look forward to seeing more of it across football in the near future.
