Video Evidence

Today the FIFA president said it would be "a nonsense" not to take a look at goal-line technology. I guess the disallowed England goal and the 'allowed' off-side goal of Argentina must have finally changed the mind of the football governing body. The technology is there and why not use it to help the referees make correct decisions and correct mistakes. A red light camera can determine if a car has run a red light and recognizes the numbers and letters on a license plate, surely today's technology can determine if a something as big as a football has crossed the goal line.
