And you clearly have never watched a high lever soccer match to make that comment.


2 or 3 guys going into the net with the ball is one thing. Goal line pileups can easily have 10 guys in a mess to obscure the ball and/or body parts which may or may not be in the ground. The area a soccer replay system has to cover is 8 yards horizontally. An American football system has to cover 55 yards (or something close, whatever it is). It is a much harder determination in American football than soccer. That's not to say there shouldn't be more and better angles though.

I understand what your saying. .. but for soccer you have 2 officials in the area, one all the way on the touch line and the center.

Football has 7 or 8 officials in the zone on a goalline play.
