Football: Premiership to have goal-line technology

LONDON: Goal-line technology could be introduced to the English Premier League in time for the 2012/2013 season, said chief executive Richard Scudamore. Writing in a review of the Premier League season to be distributed to British lawmakers, Scudamore expressed hope that controversies over goal-line decisions could soon be a distant memory. The International Football Association Board, which governs the laws of the game, has said that it will continue trials of goal-line technology to find the best possible system before making any final decision.
