'Videos will be useful in 2018 World Cup'

In a wake of the today's fast changing new technologies, future World Cups will also unlikely suffer some (additional) changes. FIFA president Gianni Infantino today hopes that the next World Cup, 2018 in Russia, will be the first global football major tournament where video referees will help officials during matches. 'I really hope that the World Cup in Russia will be the first World Cup where video refereeing is used to make refereeing maybe better' he said.
Also today, UEFA has approved the use of hawk-eye goal-line system starting from this summer's European continental championship - EURO 2016 in France and slowly introducing towards the two cup competitions later on.
