Refereeing Technology

The opposite is the case. The mistake was committed because a lack of technology. A supervising ref in front of a TV with a neutral Camera perspective could easily decide it wasn't a penalty.

But that's an issue. Goals are clearly defined, pens are not. Ref in front of TV will be put under pressure by managers and would make controversial decisions. And sometimes the main ref has better view than the camera, who should override who's decision? And in this case, how do you restart the game after that? With a drop ball inside the penalty box?! It's very impractical and will never remove the human errors from the game unless you have the game played by robots.

What about Croatia's goal? You can have two refs debate about that for half and hour and not agree. Do you stop the game while the refs debate? Who gets the last say?

Croatia's goal was scored in dead time, whatever the case maybe.

In the Neymar penalty decision, he was handled from behind and you need a dynamometer to say it was or it was n't. The sportcasters who said "not in sixteen thousand years" were looking for leg contact.

Blatter method is silly.

Instead they ought to decide on the hierarchy of decision making process so those mistakes that can easily be corrected by use of the video, are corrected.

For example a throw in given to the wrong side, or a corner kick that was given as a goal kick can easily be corrected - there is nothing to it. And many more situations, like the goal line thing for instance, for which they found a solution.

I have for many years with the growing number of horrible refereeing decisions thought like video refereeing should be introduced. We have all see it in rugby. It takes a few seconds to stop and look at it and make the right decision.

The reason they don't want it is refs wouldn't not be able to cheat as they do. Without such ***** refs we would have won the league this year.

Then when the manager questions it like Jose did, it's fines and bans for telling the truth.

They can make tests.

In the late sixties UEFA I think it was organized some friendlies without offside rule (or modified offside rule) to see if it works.

It failed and those matches were silly but it served the purpose of helping them make up their mind.

I can see it being used for offside but not for foul.

I am not sure how it is being used in rugby but in american football and basketball, they have extensive use of video technology but they don't use it for foul because foul call is subjective.

I love playing FIFA with the offsides rule turned off and not telling my opponent, usually my brother. He gets FURIOUS, absolutely livid when I score and the player was miles offside lol. I always just shake my head like, "I dunno man, coulda gone either way...tough call"

He's caught on lately.

lol it's a completely different game with no offsides.

Mourinho calling for video technology in his recent interview.

Mourinho is a big figure in the world of futbol. He should give his feedback into how it will be the best to incorporate this technology without slowing down the game a lot.

Because constantly reviewing and challenges would really mess up this sport.

Only check back red card decisions and penalties. That's all

Assuming there will always be the three men in black on the pitch -and it cannot become like water polo- then the requirement not to interrupt the flow of the game puts a limit on video technology.

Thus after a false offside flag, you can't bring back the players and say "you stand here, you stand there, you begin your run from here". It's silly.

Whenever the controversial situation is followed by dead time it's simple of course. The video ref either changes the initial decision or confirms it.
When the video ref makes a real fast suggestion then situations like penalties not given but the ball being still in play, can also be put right.
What will really happen is that the ref. listens to the video ref from the studio and we, the spectators, will observe nothing. But refereeing is going to be improved by an overall 80%.

The associations are dragging their feet over it.
(also radio journalists don't like it because the phone in programs will die and the advertising revenue).

Look at this one, from 2011, ruled out as offside:

Has become the inspiration of humour artists.
