The goalline technology provider apologized to the Terriers and the league after the system failed to award them an equalising goal in the game.

The goal was ruled not to have crossed the line.

The referee didn't receive an alert to his watch because the ball was obscured from the goalline technology tracking cameras.

Busby and his assistants didn't see that the ball went in.

The football community is reassured that this was an exceptional edge-case occurrence, and we will continue to review standard operating procedures for such occurrence.

"Hawk-eye has spoken to both of the clubs and would like to make an apology to both of them."

Despite the failure of the technology, the result stands despite being incredibly frustrated by the incident.

They want an investigation into the incident to make sure it doesn't happen again.
