Goal Line Technology

Goal line technology uses electronic devices to help determine when the ball has completely crossed the goal line to assist referees in making accurate calls on goals. It is needed because disallowed goals have negatively impacted important matches. There are four main types: GoalMinder uses cameras but only provides visual evidence; Cairos uses magnetic fields and sensors but only works with Adidas balls; GoalRef is similar to Cairos but can work with any ball; and Hawk-Eye uses cameras like in tennis but the ball must be mostly visible. Both GoalRef and Hawk-Eye are considered the best options currently.
