Expanded VAR powers for 2026 World Cup
The 2026 World Cup will highlight the expansion of Video Assistant Referee (VAR) powers, including, for the first time, additional cases such as errors in counting corner kicks and second yellow cards, aiming to reduce refereeing mistakes and speed up match flow. Semi-automated offside technology will continue to be used to increase decision accuracy, although discussions remain about its impact on the game's enjoyment and fairness. The new rules aim to improve refereeing performance while strengthening reliance on technology in organizing the tournament.
