FIFA to censor in-stadium replays

[G-MAN2004]

JOHANNESBURG -- FIFA will censor World Cup match action being shown on giant screens inside the stadium after replays of Argentina's disputed first goal against Mexico fueled arguments on the pitch.

Angry Mexico players protested to referee Roberto Rosetti after the screens in Johannesburg's Soccer City showed Argentina forward Carlos Tevez was offside before he scored the opening goal in a 3-1 victory on Sunday.

FIFA spokesman Nicolas Maingot said Monday that replaying the incident was "a clear mistake."

WHY are FIFA so utterly crap? They just constantly avoid the real issues here and change everything else. Absolute idiots.

I liked Lineker's idea of three uses of the camera technology per team, per match. I think it'd work great, if only used for the goals.
