THE French football league suspended goal-line technology in its competitions today, following more glitches during League Cup quarter-finals this week.

The LFP informed the company GoalControl “of the immediate suspension” of its technology after “two more technical failings” in matches, it said in a statement late yesterday.

The French league already said last month it wanted improvements after expressing “dissatisfaction with the failures” in several matches with GoalControl, the same system used at the 2014 World Cup. Fifa has yet to confirm whether GoalControl will be used in Russia at a second straight World Cup.
