PLATINI RULES OUT TECNOLOGIES

UEFA president Michel Platini insisted the five-official system was the way forward despite a number of high-profile mistakes in the FIFA World Cup finals and qualifiers. He said: "I think it's a very good system. We have always been very tolerant as referees cannot see everything, as with Thierry Henry and the Frank Lampard goal against Germany. Now with this system they can see everything If they cannot see if it's gone in they should get another job. If you cannot see the ball has crossed the line from three metres away then you are no good. There should be near zero tolerance with regard to referees because they should be able to see everything now." (Photo: Getty Images)
