VAR stands for Video Assistant Referee and as the name suggest ,VAR is just the use of high speed cameras and other sophisticated gadgets to aid referees in making their jobs much easier than it is now .
VAR was approved in the year 2016 and has since been adopted by many major leagues in the world and by the accesment of match officials and FA officials it seems that VAR has a bright future in the world of football.
The use of VAR will make the game of Football more transparent than it is currently and situations of Referees abusing their power in the game will be reduced .
The reason why the VAR has been in the background for far too long was because of people like Sepp Blatter and his corrupted folks .
Possibly they saw VAR as threat to their influence on the game . Fair play is the key to success of football and its quite ironic that FIFA has been preaching about fair play but had never done anything to substantiate the achievement of this task.
The English FA just gave a pass to VAR as Chief Executive Martin Glenn gave his full endorsement after the VAR proved it's worth in Monday's FA cup clash between Brighton and Crystal Palace .
After initial suggestions of a handball, Glenn Murray’s late winning goal was reviewed and approved by Neil Swarbrick from a control room at the Premier League Match Center in west london
The next big thing for VAR is thegame between Chelsea and Arsenal on Wednesday , January 10 , 2017 at the Stamford Bridge.
