Goal-line technology
- Share to:
This document serves both as a support for the implementation of goal-line technology (GLT) in football competitions and as a comprehensive guide to its development in recent years. It is therefore aimed mainly at competition organisers along with any other party affected by the implementation of goal-line technology. The recommendations are based on the test phases
from 2010 to 2012, FIFA’s GLT Testing Manual 2012 and practical experience gained from the very first use of goal- line technology at the FIFA Club World Cup in Japan in December 2012.
The implementation of goal-line technology in football
is based on a four-step procedure for the licensing and certification of GLT systems and installations. In addition, the final check of the installed GLT system by the referee before each match completes the quality assurance programme for goal-line technology.
This process reflects the structure of this guide, the
main focus of which is on steps three and four of the above mentioned licensing and certification process, in which the competition organiser is directly involved. The experience gained from the FIFA Club World Cup Japan 2012 is also included, so that readers will obtain a detailed overview of he various challenges involved in fulfilling the requirements of a certified installed GLT system. The three main chapters of this document are therefore structured as follows:
The first chapter provides an overview of the development process of goal-line technology in recent years, the IFAB’s decision on 5 July 2012 and its subsequent integration into the Laws of the Game and an explanation of the FIFA Quality Programme for Goal-Line Technology (including steps one and two of the licensing and certification process), together with the obligatory referee check before each official match.
The second focuses on steps three and four of the licensing and certification process based on experience from the FIFA Club World Cup Japan 2012. Each section in this chapter contains general information, experience from the FIFA Club World Cup 2012 and a checklist. The latter serves as a guide to obtaining a certified installed GLT system and should therefore be completed by the competition organiser.
The final chapter provides answers to the most frequently asked questions on goal-line technology and its implementation process. If you have any further questions or individual requirements, please contact FIFA (quality@fifa.org).
