Kabelo Dlamini went down in the box, but the referee waved away. Rhulani Mokwena thinks South African Football should introduce Video Assistant Referee system which is known as VAR. The game ended Orlando Pirates 3-3 Cape Town City. But yesterday’s game showed that South African teams are the best in Africa if it comes to competitive football .
For for those who support VAR read this please .
“I think that with VAR, there is always emotion,” UEFA’s head of refereeing Roberto Rosetti and the man responsible for overseeing the use of VAR in the Champions League told CNN.
“Maybe in some situations, there is a double emotion. VAR cannot kill football. It cannot kill emotions.”
Rulebook
According to the rules, the use of VAR technology is limited to four types of incident.
- Goals — whether they should stand or ruled out because of potential violations (fouls, offside, etc) in the build up.
- Penalties — if the referee has made the correct decision in either awarding one or not following an incident in the box.
- Straight red cards — to make sure an incident on the pitch receives the correct ruling from the referee.
- Cases of mistaken identity — when a referee awards a yellow or red card to the wrong player.
