Arsenal vs Tottenham
What decisions is VAR used for?

These are:
- Awarding goals
- Penalty decisions
- Red card decisions
- Cases of mistaken identity
How does VAR work?
THE video assistant referee will liaise with the on-pitch referee to relay information on calls.
The video assistant referee – a top official who will be based at Stockley Park for the League matches – has access to every camera angle and goal-line technology cameras.
The VAR also has an assistant watching the game with them.
