Luis Suarez and Neymar fume as referee refuses to award clear Barcelona goal

What exactly is the benefit of not using goal line technology?

Sure it might cost some money to implement the new system in the way that the Premier League has but the results speak for themselves and the clarity that British referees can now immediately afford to players crying out that the ball had crossed the line came as a welcome change. Barcelona will certainly be upping their calls for goal line technology to be introduced to La Liga as they had a clear goal ruled out on Sunday afternoon. Trailing to Real Betis in the final five minutes, a squared ball to Andre Gomes was directed goalwards and clearly crossed the line before it was desperately bundled away by Betis defender Aissa Mandi. This was how Barca striker Luis Suarez reacted. Five minutes later, Suarez himself found the net and the referee did allow it, meaning the game finished 1-1, but the failure to give Gomes' "goal" meant that it was two points dropped for the reigning Spanish champions. Neymar vented his fury on Snapchat as he posted the below image in the moments immediately following the final whistle. While the decision, or lack thereof, sparked a debate on the topic. https://twitter.com/dermotmcorrigan/status/825687785273229312?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/sidlowe/status/825687634882199552?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/TerryGibson88/status/825691282509029376?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/hughwizzy/status/825685104890675200?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/Subodhnjr/status/825712236874260480 https://twitter.com/CoachPeteQuinn/status/825709888626110464 Catch up with this week's episode of 888sport Football Friday Live
