Ref blunder clouds Edinburgh derby draw

10 March 2013 15:17

Hearts claimed a point against Edinburgh rivals Hibernian in controversial circumstances when the home side had a perfectly good goal disallowed during the goalless draw at Easter Road.

A Leigh Griffiths free-kick in the second half was well over the line but the goal was not given by the match officials.

The International Football Association Board - the body that approved the use of goalline technology in the game last year - met in Edinburgh only last weekend to discuss how the various licensed systems might be implemented.
