instant replay

Immediate footage review

Instant replay is the immediate playback of video footage, especially in sports broadcasting, to review what just happened.

Officials may use instant replay to verify or overturn calls: The touchdown was confirmed after instant replay.

Figuratively, any repeated experience: The argument was an instant replay of last week's.
