Former Liverpool player Jermaine Pennant criticized referees for making constant mistakes despite reviewing video replays. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, every week the errors of the VAR system are being discussed, and now it is time to involve experts who know football well and have played the game in refereeing. According to Pennant, this change will help improve the quality of refereeing.
Jermaine Pennant played for Liverpool from 2006 to 2009. He also played for London’s Arsenal, Wolverhampton, Leeds, and many other clubs.
The English footballer ended his professional career in 2018. It is worth noting that the VAR system was introduced in the English Premier League competitions starting from 2019.
Although this technology aims to make referees’ decisions fairer and more accurate, mistakes are still observed in some cases today. Therefore, experts and fans in the football field emphasize the need to improve the VAR system.
