Might add some interest to the game - wonder how much they will use this in a friendly?

England v Germany: VAR to be used for the first time in official UK game

At (new) Wembley? I bet you'll shoot another "non-goal" then and it will count nonetheless :D

Seriously: I don't like this shit anymore, we actually have it in the Bundesliga this season and there's even more controversy than before and sometimes you think you are at an American Football match with all the video breaks (a bit exaggerated I know but you know what I mean)

the above bbc article mentions it too:
The trial in Germany's Bundesliga has generated much debate, with fans suggesting it slows the game down too much.

There was further controversy earlier this week when the German Football Association (DFB) replaced Hellmut Krug as the head of the VAR centre in Cologne, after a newspaper accused him of being biased towards Schalke, the team he supports.

The DFB insisted the decision was taken before the story appeared in Bild and Krug remains involved in the project.


Super_horns: Sorry for copying my answer to your post at 1FF. I am a lazy guy ;)

Good idea in principle. Badly executed so far.
