Lindas England, Germany to the Quarter-Final

The suffering of the UK. Struggled to escape into a big round of 16, Steven Gerrard et al actually destroyed bitter rivals, Germany. Even more embarrassing, the Three Lions-called English-German bent landslide victory with the score 1-4 (1-2). UK who appear to attack from the start it had to left scored first through Lukas Podolski and Miroslav Klose, respectively in minute 20 and 32.

Striker young Thomas Muller added two goals past the German Panzer-nickname-the-minute 67 and 70. England scored just puppets donated by Matthew Upson in the 37th minute, taking advantage of Steven Gerrard's corner kick.

"The players played very well although some times make mistakes. But, the referee made a mistake that is far greater than the players, and I do not know anymore," so why Fabio Capello, the England coach, as quoted by the Telegraph. "Today we look okay, but there is always the little things that change the outcome. Always," she continued.

Capello is not an exaggeration when referee Jorge Larrionda leadership deplored the origin of Uruguay. Because, last night's game marked the incidence of adverse Three Lions. When the British left behind 1-2, Frank Lampard's release hard kick from outside the penalty box. The ball hit the crossbar, then bounced to the ground, before goalkeeper Manuel Neuer swept. Larrionda decided not occur goals and providing instruction that matches resumed.

The problem, in fact the ball had entered the goal when it hit land. In television replays clearly seen that the ball fell at the point which is about 30 cm from the goal line. Strong protest from Lampard was not ignored. England remained behind 1-2.

"If the second goal we had passed, we might be playing with different styles. Controversy was very influential to the team. I do not understand why soccer does not apply the use of technology that enables goal like that was observed, 'sighed Capello. "I regret the mistakes made by the children, but rather deplored the referee's decision," he continued.

In a way, the decision last night Larrionda is karma for the incident at the World Cup final 1966 edition, which also brings Germany and hosts England. In extra-time, referee Gottfried Dienst of Switzerland approved the original three goals Geoff Hurst scored England. England finally won the party with the score 4-2, and won the World Cup trophy for the first time.

However, the same controversial goal by Lampard's goal last night. The process was similar. Starting with a cross Allan Ball, Hurst grabbed the ball and fired shots at close range. The ball hit the pole, then bounced onto the ground before the German defenders driven.

However, referee true not sure whether the ball has passed the goal line. After consulting with the assistant, Tofik Bakhramov which came from the Soviet Union, he decided that the goals are legitimate. In fact, the television replays it was obvious that the ball just past the half the goal line. This means, yet fully entered the goal. In the Laws of the Game, released FIFA, the new goal is valid unless all parts of the ball over the goal line. So, actually when it scored Hurst invalid.

Of course this will again invite debate about the need for the use of technology by FIFA's goal line. During events, the European Club tournament last season, had occurred some controversy due to the limited view of the referee. However, several prominent proposals to promote the use of these technologies is always raw in the table Fifa president Sepp Blatter.

Finally, the proposal to revolutionize the use of technology in the field raised in meetings with the board shaper FIFA international football rules (IFAB) in Zurich, March 6 last. But, again, both the agency's proposal to freeze the technology, especially for the cameras at the goal line.
