The implementation of instant replay in leagues and competition around the world is a hot-button issue, with a wider use becoming prevalent, especially when it comes to goal-line technology. 

Major League Soccer commissioner Don Garber has been outspoken about the league's willingness to be a guinea pig for video replay on the club level and even insinuated that third-tier USL may experiment with some replay this year. As for how league coaches and executives feel about it, though, there is a balance. At what point does the game lose all of its rhythm? To what extent should replay be used? Should more than goal-line calls be subject to video replay?
