VAR can't be done once the ref has restarted play,it's simple

VAR
Don’t think that’s right.

Game goes on while VAR refs review. If they want to, they can call him and tell him he needs to review it, pitchside. They also tell him which view they see that caused them to call him. In this case, it would have been the view from behind, where it is clear Boateng gets him in the back and clatters his standing leg as he is about to shoot.

Either way, bollocks innit?!


See, this was my understanding too. But if VAR have told the ref Boateng has possibly caught the Swedish player twice (push/grab and leg trip) the ref surely can't then refuse to look at it from the pitch. He must accept the VAR team has multiple slow motion replays and he must take a look if they recommend him too?
