Brest and VAR, that makes two. Despite the fact that the Breton club is coming off a successful victory against Montpellier (3-1), during the 13th day of Ligue 1, its president Denis Le Saint is preparing to send an email to the Professional Football League (LFP ). According to the team, the manager is on the verge of asking for the abolition of VAR and aligns himself with the position of his coach Éric Roy, who has been critical on this subject several times. “How and why does VAR inform the referee about certain game actions and not others? », asked the technician on Instagram to decry the refereeing of Éric Wattellier during the defeat in Monaco
“VAR can influence the results of a match”

“Today, technology puts a lot of pressure on referees. From now on, matches are managed by VAR which can, according to the rules in force, influence the result of a match. While we have all imagined a more reliable and fairer system, in reality it remains subject to the same problems of interpretation and subjectivity as before. The most serious thing is that it has the effect of disempowering our referees and instead of helping them, it continues to put them in difficulty,” he declared.
