Australia’s A-League will become the first top-level domestic football league in the world to implement the video assistant referee system, officials said on Monday.
After six months of training and lower-tier live trials, Football Federation Australia’s director of referees Ben Wilson said he was confident most teething issues had been resolved.
“We’ve come across a couple around the expectations of what a clear error is, also the challenge on the time it takes to make decisions, and the way those decisions are communicated to the broadcaster and the fans,” Wilson said.
