VAR Officially Approved For Women’s World Cup In Rare Show Of Common Sense From FIFA
It’s rare we get to do this, so let’s take a moment today to celebrate FIFA for having some common sense. Football’s world governing body confirmed the use of video assistant referees at this summer’s Women’s World Cup. The Women's World Cup VAR decision was made Friday, a month after FIFA trialed the technology with referees at the Al Kass Cup, a youth club competition.
This will be the first time VAR is in use for a Women’s World Cup.
