First Use of Incorrect Identity Rule in 2026 World Cup
The match between the United States and Paraguay in the 2026 World Cup witnessed the first actual application of the "Misidentity Correction" rule using Video Assistant Technology (VAR). The referee canceled a yellow card previously issued to American player Tim Ream after reviewing the footage and restored possession to the U.S. team. This incident occurred after video replays showed that the player did not commit a foul. It is a rare case in which a player initially deemed at fault is ultimately cleared, highlighting the success of the new officiating rules introduced in the tournament.
