The most popular Sports League, Premier League, deployed its new referee cam feature last night – feeds in a unique convenience point in live broadcasting.
Referee Simon Hooper wore a camera embroidered in his shirt during a pulsed game between Newcastle United and Liverpool-the Premier League Champion eventually won 3 to 2 with the final-GASP winner.

The camera does not record – or at least broadcast – sound, which can be given the best that can be subject to referee abuse. But still many fans enjoyed new angles, if not everyone.
