+ FIFA's president Joseph Blatter explained in a letter the motives why his organization opposes the use of technology to analyze uncertain plays, emphasizing the game has to be played under the same conditions whether it takes place in a village or in a modern stadium.

+ According to Blatter, "one of FIFA's principal Data HKobjectives is protecting the universality of the game of football. It means that the game must be played in the same manner everywhere in the world," said the president.
+ "If one coaches a group of youths in a small village of the planet, they will be playing by the same rules applied to the professional players shown on TV."
+ FIFA's concern is that the cost of the technology would prevent its implementation in poorer regions.
