    FIFA should also adopt instant TV playbacks , as the TMO used in international rugby. Those against it claim it would take the spontaneity out of the game....so, they prefer to allow the possibility of a team winning unjustly, changing the course of a whole championship, rather than catch crass errors by the refs ??....not very sportsmanlike...another thing, a lot of players are sissies, just touch their leg and they roll over 10 times holding their faces...should be kicked off... just a bunch of bloody POOFTAS...
