The Official Video Assistant Referee Thread

Apparently the Referee Committee has decided to approve the use of VAR in La Liga for next season [COPE].

Spoiler:

May still need Perez for final approval

So Serie A and La Liga will have VAR next year. That should bring the other leagues around to it.

Knowing LFP they'll find a way to even screw THAT up

About damn time. Definitely a change for the better however there should be a limited amount of replays for each side.

No PK decision: 54:04
Opposition goal "scored": 54:24
PK decision awarded: 56:30

There's utility in VAR.pic.twitter.com/wVMcpCUCuM

They need a separate team of referees that makes simultaneous calls, The referee cannot be expected to walk off the field to look at the screen.

Im going to make a horrible suggestion now, Football should try something like the Third umpire in that satanic sport Cricket. There I said it, Yuck gotta take a bath now.
