Watching the game now and i've noticed the some other officials near the goals.

Why?

I'm sure City have goal line tech??


Not a city fan so I don't know why i'm watching the game put still:)

UEFA started using them in European competitions to aid referees with decisions in the penalty area (I think) nothing to do with goal/no goal

Yep, what he said. Although, they do aid with the goal/no goal.

I'm not 100%, but I don't know whether the goal line decision system that is used in the BPL can be used in UEFA competitions, I don't think it is.
 
Quick side note, but did anybody else think that Kolarov's tackle deserved a red? Lunged in with both feet off the ground, commentator himself even said 'Yeah, it was one of those - studs showing, both feet off the ground. Always a yellow' (?!?!). Replays didn't show it favourably either...

I would of gave red but the ref probably didn't want to take city down to 9 men
 
didnt see it so if you can get a clip it would be interesting to see. :)
