Van Persie's goal is ruled offside. Liverpool had three goals disallowed in Toyota Cup final. Sao Paolo deserved a red card. BAD REF's. We can't really blame them. They are humans and humans make mistakes. And these mistakes can sometimes cause a club its honour or perhaps, millions and millions in fortune.
It has been a long wait and finally, Fifa is considering the use of goal-line technology. Sepp Blatter has finally took a step back and allows the game to be played with balls implanted with microchips. But this will only apply onto youth competitions as trials.
We are in the 21st century and players trainings, equipments and clothings are using the most advanced technologies in the world. Players undergo specialise training regime to boost their stamina and techniques. Balls and boots have evolved from their early predecessors into performance enhancing marvels. But yet, they are still reluctant to use video technologies in helping refereeing. There's a need for changes. Why can't they emulate other games in which video replays help referees make just decisions. They say it will disrupt the flow of the game. This can be easily solved by having a fourth official watching the replays and help the referee in making vital judments like penalties and goals when its necessary.
Time for a change! NOW!
