FIFA president Sepp Blatter said on August 11: "I have said if we have an accurate and simple system then we will implement (it), but so far we have not had a simple, nor an accurate system."
However calls for goalline technology have increased, especially in the wake of a glaring World Cup blunder in South Africa when a goal scored by England midfielder Frank Lampard against Germany was disallowed.
If Lampard's goal had stood, England would have pulled level 2-2 in the match. After the goal was disallowed Germany went on to win 4-1, while England were sent crashing out of the tournament.
FIFA initially asked 17 companies to submit proposals for goal-mouth technology that would allow referees to determine, almost immediately, whether the ball has crossed the goalline.
