Like it or not, the hand of God cheating incident is one of the most memorable moments in world sporting history, and will be a talking point for many years to come.
I think that's a good thing.
He cheated. He got away with it.
We felt aggrieved and hard done by, but I'm sure the rest of the world laughed and though good luck to him.
You say that the technology wouldn't be used for every dodgy offside, 50-50 foul etc, but you don't know that. You have no idea where we would end up in 20 years time.
You mention cricket as an example of how technology works in sport but let's be honest, cricket is as dull as ditchwater. Tennis is the same.
I laugh when I see cricket fans watching a big screen to see if the video umpire will rule someone in or out, it's hilarious because it's pathetic.
Keep Pandora's box closed and keep technology out of football.
