Goal-line technology: It has been confirmed by UEFA that goal-line technology systems will be in place for this summer’s tournament. This was decided by the executive committee of the Union of European Football Associations in Nyon. The technology will also be introduced from the knockout stages of the 2016/17 Champions League. The supplier has not yet been confirmed.

In the current Bundesliga season, the British camera system 'Hawk Eye' is in place, and in the World Cup in 2014, FIFA used the German GoalControl-System to aid the referees. In England, Italy (both Hawk Eye) and in France (GoalControl), this technology has already been implemented. Previously, UEFA had relied solely on extra officials positioned behind the goal.
