GOAL-LINE TECHNOLOGY GETS APPROVAL 

After so much deliberation, the International Football Association Board (IFAB) has finally given the Federation of International Football Association (FIFA) the go-ahead to use goal-line technology at the 2014 World Cup.

Wonder what this is all about? The technology will determine when the ball has completely crossed goal line, assisting the referee in calling a goal or not.

Two systems; the Hawk-Eye and GoalRef would be employed; both have passed scientific tests to prove that they could quickly and accurately judge when balls cross the goal line.

The Technology could be introduced into the Premier League soon.

Let's say a 'brand new referee' has been introduced to football. No cheating! Sounds nice .
