Asian Football Confederation president Mohamed Bin Hammam has thrown his support behind the use of goal-line technology and extra assistant referees.
“There must be some technology introduced to define whether the ball went in or not. That must happen,” Bin Hammam, a FIFA executive member, said.
“We must take into consideration today that with hundreds of cameras in a stadium telecasting the match, they can detect each and every action.
“So people are always going to be negative about referee mistakes.
“It’s unfortunate for referees but maybe with introducing two extra referees, it can improve the decision and judgement of referees.
“Goal-line technology and two extra referees can resolve a lot of the issues.”
