Brazil complain to FIFA

It's there to help the referee on the pitch, perfectly sensible for the VAR team to view the footage whenever there's a goal or big moment and confirm the man on the spot is correct.
The issue seems to be when it isn't used rather than when it is. Given what we've seen penalties awarded for there's no way the England footage was even looked at, for example.

Teething problems, it's here to stay.
 
VAR will ruin a big game if not more this World Cup because of the way it’s applied. The england game was a farcical decision not to award a penalty and just made it look stupid. It’s impossible for a human being versed in the rules of football to view that and not award a penalty. If they view it and still decide it isn’t then surely they should be sacked for incompetence.
 
Brazil seek answers from FIFA regarding VAR after World Cup draw against Switzerland

Rightly so. The whole set up is a joke. They either us it properly or not at all.
It seems like FIFA want it to fail.

I think complaining might bite them in the arse though if it ever goes against them in the next rounds :lol:
WTF ? Rightly So ???
Which VAR decision are we talking about ? after all its been a big success so far.

The World Cup should not have been the place to trial run it.
Like I say I think this is their chance to say they’ve tried and it failed
REaaly , welll I think as do most people that its been a godsend for this tournament.
 
I'm not a fan but it worked well last night tbf. Ref gives a foul and free kick. VAR quickly checked and seen the foul was inside the box. Free kick changed to penalty.

Others saw it from many angles and felt it wasn't. Perhaps the ref and VAR team felt the same.

should use it like they do in tennis.

Each team allowed 2 challenges on a decision during a game

Shouldn't even be that. Should just be to confirm things. Like if there's a goal check for offsides, like in cricket when there's a wicket they'll check for a no ball.
