FIFA finally settled on a goal-line technology system that will be used at this summer's Confederations Cup, and if all goes well, next summer's World Cup. The German GoalControl system (demonstrated in the video) does not require any modifications to goals, nets or balls and uses high-speed cameras. When a goal is scored, the referee's watch vibrates.

GoalControl owner Dirk Broichhausen says the system will cost $260,000 per stadium to install, and $3,900 per match to operate -- considerable sums that could determine just how widespread the use of goal-line tech becomes in the near future.
