IFPnews - AN IRANIAN INVENTOR HAS SUCCESSFULLY TESTED A HOME-GROWN VIDEO ASSISTANT REFEREE (VAR) SYSTEM, CREATING HOPE THAT ENDLESS QUARRELS OVER HUMAN ERRORS IN REFEREEING IRANIAN FOOTBALL COULD BE ENDED.
The system was successfully tested on Friday in Yadegar-e Emam Stadium in the north-western city of Tabriz, supervised by the representatives of Football Federation Islamic Republic of Iran.

VAR is a football assistant referee that allows for reviewing the decisions made by the head referee with the help of the recorded video footage and a headset for communication.
