this is actually sad cause the linesman is there for a reason.if refs are depending so much on VAR,then what are the linesmen there for? lucky this isnt like in tennis,if its a wrong decision you call for a challenge,but you have a limited number of asking for it
Mls had this
this is great!! american style, should adopt this earlier
Why he must to talk ? I dont see as important. I saw decision before that
Pass interference, defense number 6, 10 yard penalty, automatic first down
I can't understand what difference doesn't it make.
Mls did for the first time. And really like bundesliga Have it. Viel Dank !
one thing from north american sport that I agree to be implemented in football
The first time this was done was at the U17 World Cup in Indonesia
Mein kampf
This is stupid
Liga MX two steps ahead
That announcement didn't help me at all. I mean… it was in German for God's sake! 😂
Only for Germans?
Hachtung!!
🙋🇩🇪
🤢🤮
Finally
Great idea, we should do this in the UK.
🎉🎉🎉
VAR is hard to deal with in the beginning, but it's getting better and better IMO.
GERMAN LANGUAGE MAKES IT SOUNDS BETTER.
F premier league 😂😂😂😂😂
Awesome, you would expect the serious German league to do this first.
We have this in México🇲🇽 since one year ago ⚽
Rip for those referees who have squeaky voice.
LA LIGA AND TEB-ASS COULD NEVER 🤡
I dont understand anything about this… whats so surprising?? VAR has been being used for quite a while now…
Liga Mx has had this forna year
xd
At this moment, wolfsburg x bayer is taking place, they disallowed a legal goal, the referee is whistling for their interests and those of some groups, this is a shame
This would take more time but I feel like if you want to announce it then do it in detail like the number of the players in offside position and the last line player. Because if it's only this, I'm pretty sure everyone even the ones in stadium would understand without announcing it no?
Interesting. Now people seem to not mind the added time that goes into var checks.
First it was "it stops the game.." now its all great with even more added time. 😄 All good tho.
Var will never be perfect so dont expect it to be, because there is always the human factor, the referee, and thats ok. Just think about how many situations var saved in just a year. If we only look at goals rightfuly disallowed or given, its a massive impact. There will still be mistakes. Learn to deal with it. Forgive and forget.
Now this is!!! Fireeeeee
So American 😂
I’ll say this. Bundesliga is probably the only major league where you never hear of refereeing controversies
The calls are by and large fair, and always made in good faith.
Bundesliga honours football and it’s culture. The way it’s meant to be played 😄😄🍻🇩🇪
I hope epl do the same
This would be crucial in la liga but the refs would make sure to avoid it cuz they want to make sure they get as many things as possible in favor or the vardridiots.
