Goal-line technology to be tested at Wembley

Unpublished
London - Goal-line technology will be tested at the London stadium of Wembley when England host Belgium in a friendly on 2 June.
The camera-based system called Hawk-Eye, will be used by independent testers during England's final game before Euro 2012.
But the match officials will have no access to data and the trial will have no impact on any contentious goal-line decisions.
Hawk-Eye's system works by using six cameras per goal to track the ball on the pitch. The system's software then uses "triangulation" to pinpoint the exact location of the football.
If the ball crosses the goal-line then an encrypted radio signal is sent to the referee's wristwatch to indicate a goal has been scored.
In line with Fifa's requirements, the whole process takes less than a second to complete.
