Thursday 19 January 2023 - 10:40

Through their microphone, referees will explain to the public in the stadium and on television all the VAR-made decisions at the next Club World Cup, scheduled in Morocco, according to a statement from the International Football Association Board (IFAB).

At its annual meeting, held at Wembley Stadium, the IFAB agreed on “live communication” by referees of VAR-related decisions both in the stadium and via broadcasters and announced that the measure would be tested for twelve months in international competitions.

The first of these, the same source added, will be the Club World Cup to be played from February 1 and 11, in which Real Madrid, Flamengo, Seattle Sounders, Wydad Casablanca, Al-Ahly, Al-Hilal and Auckland City will participate. After that, it could be implemented in competitions such as the Women’s World Cup in New Zealand and Australia (July 20-August 20).
