The reason (traditionally) is that soccer does not have many long interruptions, like American football or Baseball. Free-Kick, Throw-In, Change-ins, even Penalty shots - everything happens quite fast and barely has influence on the game time of 90 minutes. There is only one longer break in-between. So the 3 Refs on the field usually have 1 other Ref standing on the sidelines who will give his overview input on things they may have missed. He is the only one who would be able to evaluate video material - but that would have to happen extremely fast, with barely any discussion.

Is there a way to make the video start at the 10 second mark?


You should look into the Wadsworth Constant.

Here is the greasemonkey script.

Scoffing at people for continuing to try to survive on your tiny little doomed world is at least fun.

When I try changing the embed or even just adding the parameter the syatem seems to just remove the parameter when it makes its own massive embed code. I can definitely create a link that will start at the 10 second mark on the youtube site, but there must be some trick to getting VideoSift to keep the time skip parameter on the embed.

Been awhile since I did an embeded timestamp, try changing the embed to this:
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/x1VEcZHN0ZI#t=0m10s" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
It's the #t=0m10s at the end of the src that should determine when the video starts, in this case at 10 seconds. I think that should work.

Ahh, okay, my bad, I thought it was a UK rep side.

In that case, gogo Woody. =)

It wasn't a world class goalie. It was a charity event with celebrities and former players taking part and only celebrities took part in the shootout. Jamie Theakston the goalie is a TV host/presenter.

Thanks. Fixed it, should work now.

Indeed. Theakston can barely move from what I saw. Most of the match was boring but I managed to see the penalties.

Watch the whole sequence of penalties here http://videosift.com/video/Soccer-Aid-2010-Penalty-Shoot-Out-Part-1

They weren't taking it easy anyone. Woody was like the 9th or 10th person for his side to step up.

That was a good game for you, agreed!
Maybe we can pay you back during the European Cup this year.

No, wait, what´s that? ENGLAND DID NOT QUALIFY??????
Well I guess you could always use the time to practice your penalty shots...
