when did goal line technology start in england
Goal-line technology The Football Association announced that Hawk-Eye would be used in the 2013–14 Premier League season.[42] On 16 December 2013, it was announced that Hawk-Eye would be used in three of the four quarter-finals and subsequent matches in the League Cup.[43] The system was used when, on the very next day, in the Sunderland – Chelsea quarter-final, a goal from Frank Lampard was allowed.[44] The first goal to be decisively awarded using goal-line technology in the English Premier League was Edin Džeko's goal for Manchester City against Cardiff City on 18 January 2014.[45]
Three-point field goal In the 1979–80 season, after having tested it in the previous pre-season, the NBA adopted the three-point line despite the view of many that it was a gimmick.[4] Chris Ford of the Boston Celtics is widely credited with making the first three-point shot in NBA history on October 12, 1979. Kevin Grevey of the Washington Bullets also made one on the same day.
