OFFICIAL! English Federation requires the introduction of technology in football after the GHOST goal scored by Chelsea!
FA called again on Monday, the introduction of video technology in professional football, a day after the FA Cup semi-final when it was validated an invalid goal to Chelsea in the match against Tottenham.
The ball sended by the Spanish Juan Mata has not passed the goal line, but the referee validated the goal.
The International Board is to decide about the using of technology in their meeting that will take place in July 2.
“FA required IFAB the introduction of video technology for over ten years and we want this to happen as soon as possible. No federation has asked so much this thing” said the FA in a statement.
Tottenham’s players have not hidden their anger after the Sunday’s failure. Emmanuel Adebayor said that “something must be done”: “This kills the championship, kills the cup, kills the game.”
Furthermore, Chelsea’s players acknowledged that the referee made ​​a mistake: “There was no goal, is very simple. I think we need technology ” said Frank Lampard, whom was denied a valid goal on World Cup in 2010.
