The company which operates the Hawk-Eye system has since revealed that the glitch was due to "operator error" and that a review of the incident has been arranged for next week.
In a statement released after the game, the GAA said that;
"During the Armagh v Monaghan game yesterday the Hawk-Eye score detection system returned a 'data unavailable' message. The GAA requested an explanation from Hawk-Eye who concluded that the message was a result of operator error". "The GAA is happy that the system review confirmed the on-field decision by the referee taken at the time. However, the GAA has decided to stand down the use of the system today to allow Hawk-Eye to undertake a more thorough review in the coming week".It is not the first time in recent memory that the Hawk-Eye system has malfunctioned, with last year's semi-final between Galway and Derry seeing a similar incident. Galway forward Shane Walsh curled a shot inside the post which went unrewarded, before the referee added the score at half-time following a video review. Related Articles:
