EU challenges FIFA over VAR restrictions
The European Union avoided implementing FIFA's decisions regarding Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology, emphasizing the need for unified standards for the use of the technology, while enhancing support for referees and reducing lengthy reviews. The meeting also focused on improving refereeing performance, increasing actual gameplay time, and minimizing unnecessary delays, in conjunction with recent reforms by the International Football Association (FIFA) Council aimed at tackling time-wasting. These decisions come after intense refereeing debates during the 2026 World Cup and aim to standardize the interpretation of the game’s rules and facilitate their implementation across all European competitions.
