Chelsea coach Sonia Bompastor called for the introduction of goal-line technology in women’s soccer after her side conceded a controversial goal during their 5-2 win over Tottenham Hotspur in the Women’s Super League (WSL) on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Spurs scored their first goal when Amanda Nilden’s long-range effort appeared to be saved by Chelsea keeper Hannah Hampton, but the assistant referee flagged that it had crossed the line and a goal was awarded.<\/p>\n

The Premier League implemented Hawk-Eye technology at the start of the 2013\/14 season to determine whether the ball has crossed the line and other men’s leagues have similar systems.<\/p>\n

“The technology is available for the men’s game. It’s been 10 years now. Why shouldn’t it be available for the women’s game?” Bompastor told reporters.<\/p>\n

“If we want to look more professional, we need to move forward with the technology.<\/p>\n

“It’s a hard decision for the officials but you have to be 100% sure the ball was in to make that call. I don’t know if it was the case or not. From Hannah’s reaction, it felt doubtful. From where I was, it was too difficult to know.”<\/p>\n

Chelsea are second in the WSL on 12 points from four matches. They trail leaders Manchester City by one point but have played a game fewer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
