I am sure there's been a lot of appeals for the improvement of refereeing by introducing the electronic eye. Till today, FIFA is still not willing to do that and with zealousness too. So, let's look at the video feed below, where a goal is being scored on the run of play without the sight of who the scorer is? The referee rules that this goal is valid. Now, mind you under the current rule, referee's have the final rule or say to their decision, which the scorer here is a streaker. What do you think?

Hi skysuccess the video feed is simply outrageous not for the content but for the incident that took place on a football field.However let me tell you that this feed contents mature elements and it may be removed by the administrators of mylot.Coming back to the game there is no way the referee can allow that goal.He should have blown his whistle and stopped play right at the moment when the streaker shot the ball past the goalkeeper.I wonder what the stewards were doing?They couldn't stop this streaker from getting inside the field of play?However I think that it should be disallowed by the referee and play should have been restarted by him.

I don't think that goal would count because it was by someone who is not on the team. If that was the case then the audience would come in and start scoring all the time leading to football scores looking like basketball scores.. :D Nice video to watch anyways. It was good watching a goalkeeper owned by a girl that too.. bourne

bournecaindelta, In view of the episodes from the "hand of god" and the "Thiery Henry's hand that brought France into FIFA 2010" where the referee's decision is being final - and this streaker actually scored without the referee's notice. A goal could be ruled. Which is really possible considering that a player just happens to be in the same position and have taken a similar shot making action.
