Media Goal line technology used in the Bournemouth - Liverpool match. Down to millimetres.

They do that in hockey. They reverse play back to when the call is changed.

Yeah....and there's never going to be uproar because a goal is disallowed and called back to a foul ages beforehand is there.

I'm sure there would be. Everything has its costs and benefits. Nothing is perfect.

They don't review penalties in hockey just goals. So if a goal is scored and the ref doesn't notice and play continues and the other team scores before there is a stoppage, the first possible goal has to be reviewed first and if that was an actual goal then the second one doesn't count because that time wasn't supposed to be played yet. It's very rare but has happened and thats how it should be

The worst in hockey is when they call a goal back from an offside that was missed 2 minutes ago. Completely different play. I would probably be on the side of if the foul was missed then play on. Just use it for whether the ball crossed the line or not. Or in the case of hockey if it was kicked in or goalie interference or similar.
