Now it's official: UEFA will introduce VAR to the Under-21 European Championships, underway in Romania and Georgia, starting from the direct qualifying phase, i.e. from the quarterfinals.
The decision comes in the aftermath of clear refereeing errors by the Dutch referee, Lindhout, yesterday during Italy-France, to the detriment of the Azzurrini.
«Due to the considerable logistical requirements of these projects - explains UEFA in the note that formalizes the change of course - it has been established that the implementation of the VAR for the Under 21 European Championship will start starting from the quarter-finals. It should be noted that it was not used in the previous edition».
