Well exactly. It may not be true, but it's very easy to believe because had they only seen it on a replay they really had no option but to act on what they saw. It would have made a complete mockery of their insistence (at the time) that all forms of technology were out of the question, had they allowed Zidane to remain on the pitch after that.
Actually, goal-line technology is going to be used later this year in the Confederations cup, as confirmed by Sepp Blatter.
must have got a good reception when they showed Punch wiping his arse in celebration on the big screens
I've always wondered why the clock stops dead on 90mins. Why cant it continue so we know how much injury time is left? It may also stop idiots from leaving the game at 85mins because its a life or death situation that they leave the car park first...
Once again it's so that the fans don't get wound up if more time is played than announced. The amount of added time can be increased further by the ref if somethings happens such as a substitution during added time. Apparently if it reached 96 min when we were expecting 95 min, we would turn into a ravening horde.
