Tottenham’s manager has said that referee made a big mistake awarding the second goal to Chelsea in the F.A Cup semi-final between the two sides as the ball had never even crossed the line at the Wembley stadium...
Tottenham Hotspur lost their F.A Cup semi-final tie to Chelsea in the most dramatic of fashion but that was not what the final score line represented as Chelsea sealed their place in the final due to the 5-1 thrashing that they
dished out at the Wembley stadium.

their second goal of the match even when the ball had come nowhere close to crossing the goal line.
Atkinson believed that the ball had crossed the line amidst a goal mouth scramble in Tottenham’s penalty area and thus Chelsea built on that and cemented their place in the final. Redknapp’s team scored their solitary goal of
the match through http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gareth-Bale-c14422 but now the North London club need to focus on their Premier League campaign as their cup endeavours have ended prematurely.
Redknapp said, "The second goal was a disaster. It was nowhere near a goal. It was a huge mistake. We looked too open after that and they picked us off. It was key. He's (Atkinson) made a big mistake. I don't see how he can give
the goal. It's nowhere near over the line. There were bodies on the line and the ball couldn't possibly get over the line. He must have (guessed). He can't have been sure."
He added, "I spoke to him. He says he feels worse than I do. I said: 'I don't think so'. He knows he's made a mistake and he says he'll have a bad week as well. Goal-line technology has to come into the game. You can't keep having
situations like that."
