Serie B all set for VAR

By Football Italia staff

VAR will be rolled out to Serie B from next season after clubs voted unanimously for its application.

VAR has already been used in the second tier, in last season’s promotion playoffs and relegation playouts.

Today, 19 of the 20 teams currently competing in Serie B voted in favour of it being utilised full time as of the 2020-21 campaign.

For now, it is expected to be used offline for 2-3 games this term before being installed properly for the playoffs and playouts.

The technology had a similar rollout in Serie A prior to its permanent implementation at the start of 17-18.
