If Italian football resumes, it will be with VAR

The VAR will continue in Italy. If the competitions end up resuming, as UEFA want them to do, the VAR will be in place to help the on field official like in the all the matches so far this season. This is what 'Il Corriere dello Sport' have published.

So that they can do their job, social distancing will be respected. This means that either the van will be larger or there will be less people in it. The aim is to respect social distancing norms. 

The decision has gone down well with Marcello Nicchi, the referees chief in Italian football. The chief was very much in favour of VAR continuing to be used despite the fact games last a bit longer due to the stoppages. It is hoped there are not too many interruptions.
