The VAR protocol was properly implemented in an offside/non -offside decision during its 5th SL1 match yesterday.
Levadiakos’ second goal was scored yesterday without the possibility of checking the possible offense preceding the goal during a period of about 17 minutes, which had a technical problem by the VAR technology provider, with the result that there was no possibility of using the VAR. entirely and were black).
This malfunction in the VAR provider’s software due to technical problems had been repeatedly presented during the race, as recognized by the company, which would make a statement in the coming days.
When such a malfunction of the system occurs, the referee makes the final decision on the basis of his own perception and the information he receives from the assistant referee.
Subsequently, the referee and the fourth referee provide explanations to the two leaders and the two coaches to clarify the conditions concerning the decision -making process.
Inability to access the phase ripple led to the inability to make the right decision, which was canceling the offside goal, which we were finally able to analyze after the end of the match, when the technical problem was restored.
It is clear that yesterday’s technical problems had a great impact on proper decision making. The Central Arbitration Committee will examine the issue of technical damage with the VAR technology provider to ensure that such a matter will not happen again in the future.
