FIFA approve goal-line technology
![]() Football finally embraced goal-line technology as FIFA's lawmaking panel approved today two systems for use in matches. FIFA will introduce goal-line technology at the seven-team Club World Cup in Japan in December, and plans to use it in Brazil at the 2013 Confederations Cup and 2014 World Cup, secretary general Jerome Valcke said. "We want to make sure that the systems at the World Cup work at 150 percent, not 90 percent," Valcke said. FIFA will use both Hawk-Eye and GoalRef systems in Japan, after they won "unanimous" support from the International Football Association Board (IFAB) panel, Valcke said. The English Premier League is expected to adopt one of the systems - which are expected to cost up to $US250,000 per stadium - during next season. FIFA President Sepp Blatter was a member of the IFAB panel which accepted test results proving that the systems quickly and accurately judge when balls cross the goal line. Hawk-Eye is a British camera-based system already used in tennis and cricket. GoalRef is a Danish-German project using magnetic sensors to track a special ball. The historic decision was taken by an IFAB panel comprising officials from FIFA and the four British football associations. Todays decision was expected and completed Blatter's u-turn, after FIFA had previously blocked using technology to help referees make decisions. Finally I think a victory for the world of football !!! ![]() |
