Goal-line technology did not work in Huddersfield v Blackpool
EFL says failure ‘is a matter of great concern’

The English Football League is “incredibly frustrated” by the failure of goal-line technology during Sunday’s Championship match between Huddersfield and Blackpool.

The Terriers were denied an equaliser when Yuta Nakayama’s effort crossed the line, but the technology failed to detect it and the on-field officials did not spot it either. That followed a string of controversial incidents in Saturday’s Premier League action where goals for West Ham and Newcastle were ruled out after VAR interventions.
