UEFA Introduces 'Clear Line' Platform to Clarify VAR Intervention Guidelines
UEFA has launched the 'Clear Line' platform to clarify when and how video assistant referees (VAR) should intervene during football matches. Drawing on eight years of VAR experience and over 100 video clips, the platform aims to guide players, coaches, fans, journalists, and officials by explaining VAR procedures and criteria. UEFA officials emphasize that the platform is intended for broad football audiences to improve understanding and transparency of VAR decisions, especially after matches like those in the Champions League.
