For the soccer video understanding community, this is an incremental improvement on a specific benchmark.

The authors tackled the SoccerNet VQA Challenge by developing a data synthesis pipeline and a multi-expert QA architecture (MSUE) that achieved 0.95 accuracy, securing third place.

This paper presents our solution to the 2026 SoccerNet VQA Challenge. We first develop a cost-effective data synthesis pipeline driven by a Vision-Language Model (VLM), which systematically restructures raw domain data into diverse VQA samples, including concise answers and long-form responses. Second, we propose MSUE, a multi-expert question answering architecture that employs a Large Language Model (LLM) to dynamically dispatch questions to text, image, and video experts. These experts are instantiated as a strong text baseline Gemini3-Flash, a fine-tuned Qwen3-VL, and an external knowledge base, respectively, working collaboratively to enhance VQA performance. MSUE achieves an accuracy of \textbf{0.95} on the challenge benchmark, securing third place in the leaderboard.
