Germany is clearly a better team than England, but at 2-2, you never know what could happen. A lucky bounce, a bad clearing, or another ref blunder and England could have won. Either they need instant replay, or a goal judge. The soccer pitch is massive, so why not have a guy at each end watching the net?
its all about money.
the game of futbol is a business... what fifa has to pay each official for each game is money that they dont get... they being the teams, and the organization itself.
while it may seem like it should be simple to get 2 more people to strictly watch the goal line, it is technically the line judges' job to call that goal if it's close.
when it all comes down to it, FIFA doesnt want to taint the game by implementing new technologies...but basically theyre just cheap...
