During a live televised sports match, how do they get the replay footage edited in so quickly?

I’m curious as to how a ref will blow their whistle and get instant replay footage within seconds. Can someone explain this process to me?

Money, money, and money.

Seriously though, production comes down to investing in more people with more advanced machines working more angles to get all those sweet replays.

Professional sports are all about revenue from spectators. Even in-person spectators sitting in the stands still watch replays or moments they missed on the big stadium screens. The more they invest in making it exciting, the more spectators they will have and the more cash they will make. It’s a self feeding cycle, really.
