There was no controversy about that goal. Whoever's controlling these cameras is a right silly ****. They've used it for goals that have hit the net anyway so it clearly isn't necessary, now they're explicitly showing 'No Goal' on the screen when there's clearly a goal. Why would you stop it at the point when it hit the post, how could it possibly have been in at that point?

Yep. I was mystified at the fuss.

Hit the post, hit the keeper, THEN it went in. Easy.

Thanks video.

It was actually a massive success for the system, since it was difficult to see going in in real time, but the guy controlling the video, along with the commentator managed to turn it into a controversy and a reason to criticise the system.
 
Loads of teams are copying Brucie's 532 formation now, Argentina the latest.

Stevie sparked its renaissance, and I demand he gets the recognition.
 
Good to hear the roar of a crowd when that goal went in.

Up to now in most games it's been like a 1970s England Ladies hockey international at Wembley when a goal is scored.
