A new initiative at Selhurst Park is giving visually impaired supporters the chance to follow live football in much greater detail.

FA Cup winners Crystal Palace have become the first Premier League club to offer GiveVision headsets, which are powered by a private 5G network installed at the stadium by Shared Access.

The system works by capturing live broadcast footage, enhancing it and projecting the images directly onto the working part of the user’s retina.

It is designed to help those with sight loss see action on the pitch and the atmosphere in the stands more clearly.
