Goal-line technology was required for
the first time in the Barclays Premier League at Stamford Bridge today -
and thankfully its debut was successful.
Chelsea were 2-0 up in first-half stoppage time against newly-promoted Hull on Jose Mourinho's return to English football when Hawk-Eye was deployed.
Branislav Ivanovic met Frank Lampard's corner with a firm header hit straight at Hull goalkeeper Allan McGregor, who saved on the line at the second attempt.
