Australian soccer chiefs are lobbying for VAR decisions to be explained in stadiums and on broadcasts to prevent confusion over contentious calls.

The head of the A-League, Greg O'Rourke, says Australia is pushing FIFA to permit the broadcast of the VAR decision-making process.

"FIFA protocols don't allow currently the VAR to talk in-stadia or even to the commentators, it's a bit of a silent movie," O'Rourke said on Wednesday.

"Then what happens ... is the fan is left to try and interpret why, they're just left to their own devices."
