Before VAR football was played in real time. The referee who was in the pitch had the sole authority to stop the game and assign the appropriate penalty according to the rule book. Now football is not played in real time. A committee of referees in front of screens watching replays make a decision and can overrule the referee in the pitch. I agree with this article. VAR system must be abolished. The only benefit of VAR is to the technology firms who sell these systems to football.
