Usage of video technology in soccer
Published by Nikhil Joseph on Jun 27, 2010
Target: FIFA
Region: United Arab Emirates
Background (Preamble):
We would like to promote justice and fairness in sports.
Please join our petition if you believe in justice and sports.
Some sports organizations allow referees or other officials to consult replay footage before making or revising a decision about an unclear or dubious play. This is variously called video referee, video umpire, instant replay official, television match official or third umpire.
Other associations allow video evidence only after the end of the contest, for example to penalize a player for misconduct not noticed by the officials during play.
