Getting really sick of the VAR checks after every goal. I get for close ones but like the goal that are clearly onside no foul is just stupid, we’re going to end up with 10 minutes added time to every game.
well, this "var-lite" or football video support system as it's called is a cost-effective version of var. but it's new so it's going to take a while for the refs to get this right. after all, these are some of the worst refs around. 😵💫
in case you are all wondering how it works, the athletic has a write up about it. some key take-aways:
both caro and laia aleixandri were interviewed and it and said that it'll take time to get used to it, but that the long disruptions disrupted the flow of the game.
yeah, they really need to work on minimising the time disruptions for these checks. or at least have better training on them for in-game use!
