VAR: No need for technology to extend its power, says FA chief

Video Assistant Referee (VAR) was introduced to the Premier League at the start of the 2019-2020 season

Football Association chief executive Mark Bullingham says there isn't "any need" to extend the use of the video assistant referee system, because there are "enough interruptions to the game in the current model".

There has been speculation that the International FA Board (Ifab) which governs football's laws, could be asked to consider widening video assistant referee (VAR) powers to include corner kicks and second yellow cards.

However, the FA - which has a seat on the body alongside the three other British associations and Fifa - has now made its opposition clear.

"We don't think there's any need to extend the use of VAR," Bullingham told BBC Sport.
