SN Pod 8 - The Technology Debate
- July 7, 2011 3:09 PM |
- By Pedro Mendes
Soccer is one of the only sports in the world where - at the highest levels - technology is not used to assist referees. After last weekend's Nutrilite Canadian Championship, fans of both Toronto FC and the Vancouver Whitecaps have called for its introduction.
Using events from that game as a starting point, Toronto Sun's Kurtis Larson and Canadian Soccer News' Duane Rollins debate the pros and cons of goal-line technology and video replay.
