lets hope it happens several times more in the comp, preferablyb in the final allowing the best sideto lose.this is all that can happen to get the governing bodies to allow video replays of huge moments in the game.personally i think the germans wouldve beaten us even if the goalthat woulda levelled the game was allowec to stand but obviously its a matter of opinion.england clearly deserve to be on the plane back home for 4 pretty grim performances but lets hope at least lampards goal and a few more will force a change on video evidence, one things for sure it spoiled yet another game of footy.as i said earlier i doubt it made much difference to the final result of the game and the best team won.worryingly for england i think youll soon see we were beaten by a pretty ordinary team .

The point is that you would not need a video replay to tell if the ball had crossed the line: you could use the same sort of technology as tennis.
FIFA is right that there are major problems with allowing video replays, but in this, most important case, there are other, better, technological solutions. |

They won't allow video replay / goal line technology even if the final is a penalty shoot-out and .....
..... one team lose to a penalty over the line and the other team has a penalty over the line allowed. Its Sepp Blatter. He's the man. You have to wait until he is dead. |

perhaps if both teams werr allowed 3 challenges to any decisions as in tennis we would get things right.this isnt sour grapes as we lost because we deserved to lose.a 30 seconds stop in play to review thye decisions would add no more than 3 minutes to the game(if both teams used all 3 challenges in a game)earlier in the tourney kake was sent off cos 0f the other guys pathetic cheating, this woulda bin put right straightawy with kaka staying on the pitch and the other guy getting booked.

If England,Brazil,Argentina,Germany,Italy and Holland tell Blatter they will NOT enter the next World Cup until goal line cameras are used he'd agree within 60 seconds , just do it.

I do think that you'll fundamentally change the nature and flow of a football game for the worse if you take away responsibility from referees on things like offsides, penalty decsions etc, so I do see where Blatter is coming from.
However, for something as fundamental as whether the ball crossed the goal line or not, it has to be a no brainer. |
