I really hope they don't introduce a challenge system. It might suit some of the American sports, but would be another step in the wrong direction for VAR in football (soccer). It already takes long enough to make a decision at times. Imagine after all that, the decision is challenged.
Yeah, agreed. This whole “challenges” thing they like in America is bullshit. It’s just another distraction, it adds complexity and, like you said, would add even more time in the decision making. Just invest in improving refereeing ffs.
I think challenges work fine in sports that naturally stop anyway - tennis, NFL, etc.
Not football though.
Agree about improving refereeing, that's a better approach IMO.
