UEFA reminds that VAR should only be used for clear and obvious errors

UEFA has given a scolding to its referees and, in passing, to the football world for the incorrect use of video refereeing.


Roberto Rosetti, UEFA’s head of refereeing, reminds in a UEFA press release that VAR was created solely to correct clear and obvious errors. In this way, the aim is to prevent the use of technology from distorting the competitive essence of modern football.

"Technology is excellent for objective decisions, such as offsides, but when it comes to subjective judgments we must be cautious, because when we review tiny details we are slowing down the game," Rosetti explains.


The protection of players, the reduction of simulation, as well as the strengthening of cooperation between referees and team captains, are all part of this latest UEFA statement on refereeing.
