FIFA to make refereeing changes for future World Cups

Goal-line technology is back on the agenda after Fifa revealed this World Cup is set to be the last tournament under the existing refereeing system.

Fifa general secretary Jerome Valcke told the BBC that TV replays showing Frank Lampard scoring a goal against Germany was a “bad day” for organisers.

And Valcke suggested changes will be made before the 2014 World Cup.

“We’re talking about a goal not seen by the referee which is why we are talking about new technology,” said Valcke.

Fifa’s general secretary also suggested that the use of two extra referees positioned on the goal-line – a system trialled last season in the Europa League and set to be used in the Champions League this coming season – might be used in future World Cups.

“Let’s see if this system will help or whether giving the referee an additional four eyes will give him the comfort and make duty easier to perform,” added Valcke.

“I would say that it is the final World Cup with the current refereeing system.”

Although Valcke’s comments will be interpreted as a change of policy by Fifa following the International Football Association Board’s (Ifab) decision to reject goal-line technology and other aids for referees in March, the Fifa general secretary wants the whole approach to refereeing to be reformed.

“The teams and the players are so strong and so fast. The game is different and the referees are older than all the players,” said Valcke.

“The game is so fast, the ball is flying so quickly, we have to help them and we have to do something and that’s why I say it is the last World Cup under the current system.”

Fifa president Sepp Blatter has repeatedly rejected calls for the introduction of goal-line technology or TV replays, insisting an element of human error has always been a part of the game.

Opponents have also pointed to concerns over universality – that all levels of the game should be subjected to the same rules and methods of refereeing.

But following the Lampard “goal” in England’s 4-1 defeat by Germany and Carlos Tevez’s offside strike for Argentina against Mexico in a game the South American side won 3-1, Blatter performed a U-turn, saying that it would be a “nonsense” not to reopen the file on technology.

Ifab – the game’s rule making body which consists of representatives of the English, Scottish, Northern Irish and Welsh FAs as well as four representatives from Fifa – is due to hold a meeting on 21 July where the issue is expected to be discussed.

But Valcke said it was unlikely serious discussions would be held until a further meeting scheduled for October.

In March, Ifab heard presentations from two companies pitching to introduce systems which they say provide definitive proof when the ball has crossed the line for a goal.

But both the proposals from Cairos Goal-line technology, which uses a microchip inside a football and magnetic fields around the goal line, and Hawk-Eye, which uses six television cameras positioned around the goal, were rejected.

The Cairos system was tested by Fifa in the World Club Championships in Japan in 2007, but despite their claims that the test was a success, Ifab again rejected the proposal in March 2008.

It was debated again in 2009 but again turned down.

Both Hawk-Eye and Cairos insist cost is not an issue as they offered to pay for the installation of the system in return for a share of sponsorship rights.

Ifab also turned down the chance to introduce the system of two extra referees positioned on the goal-line in time for the World Cup in South Africa.

Del Bosque already focused on final

Spain boss Vicente del Bosque urged his players to go on and win the World Cup final only moments after their 1-0 semi-final victory against Germany.

Carles Puyol’s second-half header put Spain in the final for the first time and Del Bosque is already focused on beating Netherlands on Sunday.

He said: “Our players carried out their job in a magnificent way.

“But let’s think about the game in front of us. We’re in good shape physically – let’s try to win.”

Puyol grabbed the winner in the 73rd minute, powering home an unstoppable header from Xavi’s pin-point corner.

It was just reward for arguably Spain’s best performance of the tournament so far, one which saw them control possession for large periods and restrict Germany – who had been prolific in attack in the lead up to the last-four clash – to only a handful of half chances.

In the end, Spain had 13 attempts to Germany’s five, and Del Bosque said: “From defence through to attack I think we played a great game.”

Those sentiments were echoed by leading striker David Villa.

Villa is top of the World Cup scoring charts with five goals – and Puyol’s strike against Germany was in fact the first of La Furia Roja’s seven goals that Villa did not either score or create.

And he says Spain must now go on and add the world title to their Euro 2008 triumph.

“We’ve shown that in the big moments we can grow even more,” he said. “We should have scored more goals, but one from Puyol has put us in the final.

“The group deserves this but we want more. We are happy to be in the final, that was our objective, but now we want to be champions.”

But Spain defender Gerard Pique insisted his side face a tough match against the Dutch in Johannesburg.

The Barcelona centre-back produced a fine performance alongside Puyol to keep Germany at bay in Durban, but asked if his team should be worried about Netherlands in the final, he told BBC Five Live: “Yes, of course.

“The Netherlands have a lot of good players – [Arjen] Robben, [Robin] Van Persie, [Wesley] Sneijder – and we have to try to stop them.

“But at the same time we need to play our game, to pass the ball around like we know we can, and create chances.

“Sometimes we can overplay it, and we don’t shoot on goal enough. But I think that at the moment we are on a great run and if the opposition do not score, one goal is enough to win the game.”

World Cup Dutch ‘beer stunt’ charges dropped

More than 30 women were ejected from the stadium because of the dresses

South African prosecutors have dropped charges against two Dutch women accused of a marketing stunt at the World Cup.

The pair were arrested last week at the match between Denmark and the Netherlands.

They were accused of “ambush marketing” by wearing orange mini-dresses associated with a Dutch brewery and breaking strict Fifa marketing rules.

The Dutch foreign minister strongly condemned the arrests.

“The charges have been dropped. Fifa indicated that they have no interest in proceeding with the matter,” said National Prosecuting Authority spokesman Mthunzi Mhaga.

“They reached an agreement with Bavaria Beer company,” he said.

‘Outrageous’
 
Under South African laws brought in after it was chosen to host the football tournament, the women could have been sentenced to prison terms by special World Cup courts.

“It is outrageous that the two women have a jail term hanging over their heads for wearing orange dresses in a football stadium,” Maxime Verhagen said in a statement.

The case has led to the sacking of English football commentator and former footballer Robbie Earle.

He was found to have passed on some of the tickets used by the women from his allocation for friends and family, in breach of Fifa rules, and was promptly sacked by employer ITV.

With a large chunk of Fifa’s revenue coming from selling World Cup marketing rights, it vigorously pursues anyone who tries to associate itself with the tournament, reports the BBC’s Jonah Fisher from Johannesburg.

Earlier this year a local low-cost airline was forced to withdraw an advertising campaign that boasted it was the “Unofficial National Carrier of the You-Know-What”.

Engineers defend World Cup football amid criticism

The engineers who have designed the official football for the 2010 World Cup have hit back at criticism of their ball by some players.

Fabio Capello said his players gave the new ball bad reviews, with some players saying it moves too quickly.

And goalkeepers have claimed the new Jabulani ball is difficult to handle.

But engineers at Loughbrough University claim that their tests show it is the most “consistent” football ever manufactured.

The football that former England international Geoff Hurst belted into the goal in the 1966 World Cup final was made from 18 pieces of leather, stitched together and fastened with laces.

The new World Cup football is made from just eight pieces of shaped synthetic material glued tightly together.

The result – for the first time in football history, say the manufacturers – is an undistorted, perfectly spherical ball.

But some players say it moves too quickly, and a number of goalkeepers say it is difficult to handle.

The engineers who helped design the ball, called the Jabulani, say it should be the most consistent football ever made.

Dr Andy Harland at Loughborough University used a robot to kick the ball.

His set up is able to reproduce corners, free kicks, passes and shots on goal – even more reliably than David Beckham.

Shining example
 
“Fundamentally, what we are trying to achieve is a ball that is very consistent that allows the very best players in the world to express their skills,” he says.

“So we’re not looking for a ball that behaves unpredictably which would benefit a player that’s not skilful. We want a ball that is very consistent that allows the best players to shine.”

His robot tests, which were supported by the ball’s manufacturer Adidas, showed that the Jabulani was better than previous World Cup balls. It flew through the air more smoothly and hit its targets more reliably.

Dr Harland’s colleagues used a wind tunnel to aerodynamically design the grooves on its surface, which guide the ball as it flies through the air.

In the past, their positions have been determined by the ball’s natural seams but the Jabulani doesn’t have any seams so, according to Dr Martin Passmore of Loughborough University, engineers can put the grooves where they like.

“What we’ve tried to do with the inclusion of grooves,” he explained, “is to make sure that the ball looks much more symmetrical in flight, so it flies in a much more controlled way and gives the control back to the player to get it to do what they want to do.”

Young boys at the Kingston-Upon-Thames Little League say the new ball is “awesome”.

But it’s too expensive for their coach and one of the league’s organisers, Andrew Standford.

His practice footballs cost £5 and match balls retail for £15. By comparison, the Jabulani costs more than £60.

For Mr Standford, the production of a new ball is as much about marketing as it is about improving the quality of footballs.

“Every new World Cup, there’s a new football out and each time it seems a little bit more expensive. It does feel good and it does play well but it is expensive for what’s just a football.”

But researchers at Loughborough University say the ball is well worth the price. The gripes by some players, he says, are possibly a result of some of the World Cup venues being located at high altitudes in South Africa, rather than any problem with the ball.

At higher altitudes, the air is thinner and so the ball moves faster. Dr Passmore thinks that the players will soon get used to the conditions. So has he helped to create the perfect ball?

“I don’t know if there’s such a thing as a perfect ball. And I don’t think it’s entirely clear what you’d want from a perfect ball. Maybe a perfect ball would be one that I could use to score the winning goal in the World Cup.”

World Cup gets a man bag

No excuse is needed to justify publishing a picture of the delightful Naomi Campbell, but here’s one anyway: the super-model has unveiled the new custom-made Louis Vuitton carry case which will house the World Cup trophy on its journey to South Africa.

Not to be outdone by all the man-bag toting super-star footballers at the tournament this summer, the venerable 18-carat gold trophy now has it’s very its very own de rigueur case – featuring Vuitton’s iconic monogram canvas.

“When you have the most beautiful girl in the world you hope she will wear the most beautiful dress,” Jerome Valcke, secretary general of FIFA, explained. “That’s exactly what we’ve done.”

However, FIFA have not yet lost all their marbles. Naomi was only allowed to pose with a replica of the trophy given her history of… er… throwing things.

Dad’s army

When Fabio Capello dumped Theo Walcott, aged 21, in favour of Shaun Wright-Phillips, 28, from his final selection the manager ensured England took their oldest ever squad to the World Cup finals.

The average age of 28.7 years beats the old record from the 1954 World Cup of 28.4 – and that squad included a 39-year-old Stanley Matthews.

The team is also the most experienced ever with a total of 900 caps – an average of 39.1 that beats the previous best of 32.2 when England reached the semi-finals of Italia 90.

The last time an experienced England squad was dubbed ‘Dad’s Army’ they actually won the World Cup, in 2003. Okay, so that was a different sport, rugby union, but good omens and all that!

My First World Cup: Peter Odemwingie

Nigeria striker Peter Odemwingie has told the BBC he will look to the great Super Eagles performances in the World Cups of the 1990s as he prepares to make his own debut in the tournament.

Odemwingie, who has scored nine goals in 47 games for Nigeria, will be making his World Cup bow six years after first being called up for the national team.

And he said he was inspired by Nigeria’s famous displays at USA ’94 – where they reached the last 16 – and France ’98.

“I remember each and every one of their goals – of Rachid Yakini, Amunike, Amokachi, Siasia, George – I remember all their goals, and the dramatic game against Italy, that we lost 2-1 after leading,” he told BBC World Service.

“I remember France ’98, with the super goal from Sunday Oliseh from almost 40 metres. Great memories, of course, of the Nigerian team performing in the World Cup.

“Now it’s my time to do something for my country and to be remembered as someone who did something great in the World Cup.”

Final emotion

Odemwingie, who was born in Uzbekistan when it was part of the Soviet Union, had the option to play for Russia – but instead chose to play for the country of his father, and was first picked for the Super Eagles in 2004.

However, they unexpectedly failed to qualify for the 2006 World Cup after only finishing level on points with Angola – who went to Germany by virtue of having a superior record in matches between the two teams.

South Africa 2010, therefore, represents the 28-year-old Lokomotiv Moscow player’s first chance to shine at this level, despite having secured nearly 50 caps.

He admitted, however, that he would still have to fight to ensure he starts the first Group B match, against Argentina on 12 June – before further games against South Korea and Greece.

“For the last few years, I’ve been one of the key players in the team – but that doesn’t mean that the new coach [Lars Lagerback] doesn’t have his own views,” he said.

“You still have to fight for the shirt, even though it’s not like five or six years ago when I was new in the national team – when I wasn’t confident of being in the 18 or 23 player list for the game.

“Now I am confident that I have proven myself for Nigeria, that I am going to be there. I am looking forward to being in good health, and relate well with the new coach.”

Odemwingie also said he gets “very emotional” after the final of each tournament, when he sees the winning captain hoisting the famous gold trophy.

“I feel the happiness they have, because it’s like a dream come true for everyone,” he said.

“As good as your team is, as big as you are as a star, you still don’t know if you’re going to win it, and if you’re going to hold that cup in your hands. So when I see a big player raising that cup with so much joy, I feel it’s very encouraging – that nothing is impossible.”

Known for his pace, Odemwingie shot to prominence when he scored two goals at the San Siro while playing for Lille against AC Milan in the Champions League.

By the time of the 2010 African Nations Cup, he was captain of the national team, where they got to the semi-finals.

Odemwingie also spoke of his “pride” that Africa was finally hosting a World Cup tournament – and added he felt it would definitely give Nigeria an advantage.

“Africa is Africa – it’s like a happy continent; it’s a colourful continent.

“We will feel more at home, because we will feel the atmosphere still; you know that you are in Africa. At the same time, we will have lots of supporters.

“You have a lot of Nigerians living there, you have those who will travel. I will have my own support – my parents and my sister; her husband; the kids – some friends from Nigeria and some friends from Europe.

“When I look at them sitting there, I will feel like I am not alone. We will have a lot of support, more than in any other country – 20-30,000 Nigerians will travel, and you have 10,000 living in South Africa – so every game will have the feeling of playing a home qualification game.”

And he added he had no doubts that South Africa would put on a good show.

“Last year’s Confederation Cup showed a little bit that it is going to be a good tournament,” Odemwingie explained.

“And that is not even all about it. It is going to be better than that. It’s the proof that Africa has developed – it’s a continent that is running a little bit behind Europe and America, for instance, but this is the proof that it is not stagnant; that things are happening there.

“People have visions, have plans… that’s why they can invite people – the whole world – to come and see how far they have gone in developing their country; they can invite people for such a big tournament.

“It’s a message to the world that we’re here. We’re not on top, but we’re heading there. I think it’s the first shout-out of Africa that we’re coming.”

North Korea ‘will not’ travel to Zimbabwe pre-World Cup

North Korea will not be preparing for the World Cup finals with a visit to Zimbabwe, ending fears over a potentially controversial trip.

The Zimbabwe government had suggested the Asian side would stop in the country on their way to South Africa.

That sparked protests in Matabeleland, where rights groups say a North Korean-trained army unit killed thousands of people during the 1980s.

But the government now say they have heard nothing from the North Koreans.

“I will check on the progress of the North Korea team but I don’t think that they will stop in Zimbabwe,” Tourism Minister Walter Mzembi said.

Sports Minister David Coltart added he no longer expected the North Korea team to come.

The country’s football association, Zifa, said it had never invited the team to come and train.

North Korea are expected to play Greece, DR Congo and Nigeria in the build-up to the World Cup – they are in Group G along with Brazil, Ivory Coast and Portugal.

Kaka downplays injuries ahead of World Cup

Kaka is confident he will be in great physical condition when Brazil begins its bid to win a sixth World Cup title in South Africa.

Kaka arrived in Brazil on Tuesday saying the injuries that kept him from playing several matches with Real Madrid this season will not bother him in next month’s World Cup.

The playmaker says he will be fully fit by the time the competition begins on June 11.

“The medical team will evaluate my condition, but I’m fine, no problem,” Kaka told local reporters as he arrived. “I’ll be 100 percent.”

A former FIFA player of the year, Kaka endured a groin problem and a thigh injury through parts of season and failed to play at his best.

“It was a tough season for me,” Kaka said. “But there is a lot of time until the World Cup for me to get ready. We have examples of players who were not physically fit going into the World Cup but eventually played well, so it’s not a concern.”

The 28-year-old Kaka was sidelined for 45 days at one point and played sparingly with Real Madrid when he returned to action.

One of Brazil’s doctors, Luiz Rosan, told local media that Kaka is not having problems related to the groin injury anymore, and that the thigh ailment is not major.

The playmaker is expected to be one of Brazil’s main leaders in this year’s World Cup, along with Robinho and veteran defenders Juan and Lucio.

Kaka was a member of the Brazil team that won the World Cup in 2002 in South Korea and Japan, and one of the main players when it was eliminated by France in the quarterfinals of the 2006 World Cup in Germany.

Kaka’s Brazil teammate Luis Fabiano also arrived in Brazil on Tuesday and also downplayed the injury that is keeping him from playing with Sevilla in the Copa del Rey final on Wednesday.

“It’s a minor injury, but I didn’t want to risk aggravating it,” Fabiano said. “I won’t be fully fit by Friday, but in two weeks I should be fine.”

Both players will be evaluated and treated at the Sao Paulo club before reporting to Brazil’s national team on Friday.

Brazil will practice for about a week in the southern Brazilian city of Curitiba before heading to South Africa on May 26. The five-time world champions will play against North Korea, Ivory Coast and Portugal in Group G.
