What a cracking game of football we had on Sunday between the power houses of Gaelic football in Kerry & Dublin. In the other semi-final between Derry and Galway Hawkeye had a bit of a nightmare to say the least and now the GAA have issued a statement where they say;
“Full end to end testing of the system will take place this week, after which a final decision will be made as to the deployment of the system for Sunday’s GAA Hurling Final.
Only seeing this now. Both Conor Glass and Shane Walsh shots were points. Both should've stood. #Hawkeye #GAA pic.twitter.com/U6s21qbBFQ

Hopefully the GAA manage to get this sorted, because could you imagine losing an All-Ireland final when a point clearly did or didn’t go over the bar. We would never hear the end of it on social media and rightful so too. Technology is now a massive part of every game and should be used to help the officials in anyway possible.
