Above is yet another screenshot from the new version of EA Sports’ soccer simulation, FIFA 09.
As you can see, there appears to be a linesman running in the background of the shot, which would hint that there will be “in play” officials on this game, which will be a welcome addition in 09.
In the past, officials have flitted from being in the game on one version, and not the next, and as they weren’t visible during gameplay on the pitch in FIFA 08, it would seem their return was imminent in this version.
