Introduction of video review in national and international soccer games
Petition published by Michael Ungermanns on Feb 26, 2011
Target: FIFA - Fédération Internationale de Football Association
Region: GLOBAL
Petition Background (Preamble):
Introduction of video review in national and international soccer games.
Petition:
There is an extraordinary number of false calls in soccer upsetting supporters all over the world every week. One of the most respectable ideas in sport is "fair play" which is not imposed in any way.
One reason for that is that players know that there is no possibility in a running game to check their unfair play. In addition to that, referees cannot judge fairly, because there is no real utility to do so.
It is not our intention to reduce the tension in soccer but to raise the amount of fairness in soccer as it has already been in several sports like tennis, football, rugby and hockey. So we petition for the introduction of video proof in soccer for referees and trainers of soccer clubs.
