Fifa gives green light to video reviews at Russian World Cup
FIFA has finally and fully approved video review to help referees at the World Cup.
The last step toward giving match officials high-tech help in Russia was agreed to at a meeting in Colombia late on Friday by Fifa’s ruling council, chaired by president Gianni Infantino.
Infantino said it would lead to “a more transparent and fairer sport. We need to live with our times.”
