Given the increasing number of refereeing errors, the Professional Football League (LFP) has bowed to pressure from the use of video. Its Board of Directors meeting on Thursday, chose to adopt the goal-line technology in Ligue 1 for the 2015-2016 season.
The pressure was too strong. “ Imagine that OM is not in the Champions League because of the two points lost against Lyon … ” Sondé in the daily newspaper Le Parisien like many of its counterparts in Ligue 1, Waldemar Kita, President of FC Nantes, was among the overwhelming majority of the patrons of the elite clubs convinced of the need to use the video in the championship of France .
A coalition even stronger after that have multiplied in recent weeks out incorrect. To ignite the climate of Ligue 1 whose fight for the title has rarely been so tight and put his players on edge whether players or managers. So much so that the members of the Board of the Professional Football League (LFP) meeting on Thursday afternoon, endorsed what must be considered a revolution with the adoption of the ‘goal- line technology “as of next season. A decision that will be accompanied in the coming weeks of consultation with the companies concerned, we learn in the terse statement from the LFP.
Under the aegis of a Thiriez that n has never hidden his favors for video, League 1 makers have therefore taken the plunge. While opponents to its use could be counted on the fingers of one hand. According to the consultation with the Parisian fourteen Presidents of the championship of France, only those from Bordeaux and Guingamp against. And investment, therefore puisqu’estimé between 200 000 and 300 000 per year per club to acquire the necessary video equipment (the League, as a supervisor, should support), no longer a obstacle sufficient to justify the refusal of such technology, which had first appeared in the last World Cup in Brazil and had validated a goal from Karim Benzema against Honduras.
I am for the Hawk Eye, but I’m especially that “doubt” does not benefit systematically others in general, and particularly at OL
Vincent Labrune ( President of OM)
With this decision, the Ligue 1 is especially the choice to live with the times and began to page, as will also do the Germany next season in the Bundesliga and Italy in Serie A. To reach England with the Premier League was a pioneer in this field. From there to imagine that this initiative be enough to calm the controversy, there is a step … President of OM, Vincent Labrune, quoted by La Provence , and said Monday: “ I am for the Hawk Eye, but I’m especially that “doubt” are not automatically entitled to others in general, and especially OL “ .
