"At the world championships, there was not a single draw for serious misconduct," said referee Danny Makkelie Monday at the opening of the Replay Center of the KNVB to Zeist. He was active in Russia as VAR
"There were no vicious violations and these were also reduced in competitions where the VAR was active last season, while the Italian Serie A had 44% less schwalbes.After Makkelie, the VAR not only makes the game fairer, but it also has a preventive effect. "Against the players in a corner, he said consciously:" The three camera is watching you and the four camera is on you. "As such, a player knows that he should not commit a violation."
The VAR will join the 324 Eredivisie next season the duels are used and he will follow the center matches at Zeist, as happened during the World Cup from a special center in Moscow. "Football in Eredivisie will be much fairer," said the director Eric Gudde of the KNVB on Monday. "This showed the World Cup."
There are doubts about the union if many more penalties are given. At the World Cup, the balloon rose 29 times eleven meters and the record of 1998 and 2002 (22 penalties) disappeared from the books
"The first figures of the IFAB (the International Committee of the rule of the game, ed.) The competitions do not show that there are more penalties by the VAR, "says Gijs de Jong, general secretary of the KNVB." Maybe that's the difference between a tournament and a competition, that the importance is a bit bigger and that something more is being played on a penalty kick, but that continues to speculate. "
Makkelie:" The question here is how Eredivisie players will react to the VAR. If they are afraid of the system and are aware that everything is seen, we see fewer penalties, but at the World Cup was still in the heat of battle, the players always seem to forget that the VAR is watching them. "
9 Million Euros
The first game of Eredivisie with VAR is the first competitive match Friday, August 10 between PEC Zwolle and Heerenveen. , the VAR was already used in the Netherlands for the scale of Johan Cruyff, the KNVB Cup matches and the playoffs.
