U17 World Cup Semifinal: Spain's Santi Denia does not want video replays to be shown in stadiums

Spain won their 2017 FIFA U17 World Cup semi-final against Mali, a game marred by controversy with the Africans robbed of a goal, disallowed by referee Ryuji Sato, despite video replays clearly indicating Cheick Doucoure's strike had crossed the line before bouncing out.

Head coach Santiago Denia of Spain spoke his mind out and asked the world governing body to not show replays of incidents on the screen inside the stadium.
