The I.F.A. B. The Internatinal Football Association Board. have again decided not to apply the goal line technology , even when the world cup is so near. But what did happen that same day? In the F.A.cup between Portsmouth and Birmingham City, as the game ended 2-0 in Portsmouth favour. But Birmingham player Ridgewell clearly headed theball over the goal line. And according to F.i.F.A rule if the entire ball crosses the goal line then it should be declared as a goal. Here we saw David James scramble the ball after it clearly crossed the line completley.
Let us take our memories back to the 1966 world cup in the match between England and West germany the goal by Geoff Hurst should not stand as it did not clearly cross the line.So he would not have become the only footballer to score a hat trick in a world cup final game.. In a match between Tottenham Hotspurs and manchester united, Pedro Mendes kicked a ball that hit Roy Carrol the goalkeeper in the chest and then crossed the line for all to see . But that blind bat of a referee.
Oh when will F.I.F.A agree to use technology for the better and honest results . Even in Hockey it is used in the 2010 world cup.
