At the 2018 World Cup, video-assisted arbitration (VAR) technology will be used for the first time. And FIFA has also made great changes to the rules to maximize the VAR to ensure fairness in matches. However, professional disputes have begun to break out, revolving around the first time in history that video technology has been used to support VAR.
One of the biggest changes is that FIFA allows the referee to disqualify players from non-sporting behavior, even if they do not follow the situation. Referees are allowed to dismiss players at any time during the match after receiving support from the VAR. Even, the referee may disqualify the player in the second half, after watching the video during the break between the two halves.
The change of law to increase the authority of FIFA's referees to limit violence and trickery at the biggest football festival on the planet. The players will use the trick will certainly have to change the game at the 2018 World Cup if you do not want to receive red cards and cause the home team to disadvantage with the lack of people. And the spirit of fair play also needs to be demonstrated throughout the league.
In addition to increasing the authority of the referee in the decision to fine card through the VAR, FIFA will also be more strict with the members of BHL team. Arbitrators are also allowed to use the VAR to penalize the coach, BHL member or reserve players who have non-sporting behavior on the referees or opponents, even if they are non-aggressive actions. Direct impact on the match.
The most likely interference of the VAR in the early stages was probably Spain's 2-0 win over France in early 2017. In that match, Antoine Griezmann (France) was rejected by the VAR a goal for offside. In the opposite direction, the referee after the offside flag for the situation Gerard Deulofeu of Spain scored the decision to change the mind thanks to VAR. Without this technology, the score would have been 1-1. Obviously, having a VAR and not having a VAR has produced two completely different results.
In the beginning, VAR technology received a lot of support as it helped to clarify controversial decisions. But gradually, when put into use throughout the official league, the VAR began to reveal defects.
The match between the Mainz and Freiburg in the Bundesliga in April is a good example of the troubles that the VAR created. At the end of the first half, the referee refused to give Mainz a penalty after a controversial situation. But then after the end of the game, he again ... changed their mind and asked the two teams to return to Mainz kick penalty kick. The players and the audience in Freiburg were not happy about it, neither was the organizers so relieved.
Besides the annoyance, VAR does not guarantee performance. Hawk-Eye has apologized to the organizers for the incident, which changed the results of the tournament as Melbourne won 1-0 at the Newcastle Jets. Kosta Barbarouses' controversial goal. In the slow motion video on television, audiences could see Barbarouses were in the offside. But the VAR did not ... because the system suddenly broke down 30 seconds before the goal took place.
"I can be 100% sure it is an offside situation. But obviously, because the VAR does not work, you can not say that to the referee. This case is clearly a failure of technology, "- said Mr. Holzmueller.
Previously, the use of VAR has also repeatedly encountered problems for unbelievable reasons. Specifically, during the match between Boavista and Aves in the Portuguese Championships in February, the referee could not watch back the tape in a controversial situation just because the VAR camera was covered by a flag of the fans. "It's technology, it can fail," said FIFA's chief technology officer.
"We have to prepare for the VAR, there will be quite unusual situations taking place in this World Cup. The match will be paused, you wait while it is delayed, and then re-start. The players in Spain are not familiar with this, "- said Lopetegui.
What is VAR technology ?
In addition to increasing the authority of the referee in the decision to fine card through the VAR, FIFA will also be more strict with the members of BHL team. Arbitrators are also allowed to use the VAR to penalize the coach, BHL member or reserve players who have non-sporting behavior on the referees or opponents, even if they are non-aggressive actions. Direct impact on the match.
The first time VAR is used
Nearly two years have passed since the introduction of the VAR into the world of football (which was initially tested in the Professional Football League), VAR has become increasingly popular among fans when used in Friendly match between France and Italy in September 2016. Since then, the VAR has been consistently appearing in international friendly matches, creating remarkable effects.The most likely interference of the VAR in the early stages was probably Spain's 2-0 win over France in early 2017. In that match, Antoine Griezmann (France) was rejected by the VAR a goal for offside. In the opposite direction, the referee after the offside flag for the situation Gerard Deulofeu of Spain scored the decision to change the mind thanks to VAR. Without this technology, the score would have been 1-1. Obviously, having a VAR and not having a VAR has produced two completely different results.

VAR makes the 2018 World Cup game more tangled
Defending champion Real Madrid repeatedly criticized the technology. Defender Luka Modric criticized the use of VAR only makes the game "more tangled". Coach Zinedine Zidane is similar in saying that the game is torn because the referee takes several minutes to review the situation through the VAR. Many people agree with this view that the VAR is making football lose its inherent appeal.
Besides the annoyance, VAR does not guarantee performance. Hawk-Eye has apologized to the organizers for the incident, which changed the results of the tournament as Melbourne won 1-0 at the Newcastle Jets. Kosta Barbarouses' controversial goal.

Football players must also practice to adapt VAR
Not only bring anxiety to the organizers, VAR is also causing the team headaches. Spain coach Julen Lopetegui has said he will let the players practice to adapt to this technology. The reason Lopetegui put out is because the players will have difficulty maintaining the game when the game is interrupted continuously."We have to prepare for the VAR, there will be quite unusual situations taking place in this World Cup. The match will be paused, you wait while it is delayed, and then re-start. The players in Spain are not familiar with this, "- said Lopetegui.
