da stake casino: Fifa president Sepp Blatter has shown his support for goal-line technology, stating that it is no longer an alternate but a necessity.
The footballing world has been torn over whether the sport should use technology for the key decisions in the game, with whether the ball has crossed the line a major case for inclusion.
England escaped a Ukrainian equaliser on Tuesday night as Marko Devic’s effort was cleared off the line by a retreating John Terry, however replays showed that the goal should have been awarded.
The referee decided to play on, despite a linesman being in a great position to make the decision, and the human error has now prompted Blatter to back goal-line technology.
“After last night’s match #GLT (goal-line technology) is no longer an alternative but a necessity,” he told his Twitter followers.
Technology has worked well in other sports such as rugby and tennis, and as such Fifa are expected to make a decision in July over the potential inclusion of technology in football.
