They have been so many controversies surrounding the use of video assistant referee in sports generally especially in football. Do you think it was good to introduce VAR in football or was it a wrong decision?

I think VAR was a good idea because it helps correct clear refereeing mistakes, especially with goals, penalties, and red cards. However, delays and inconsistent decisions can frustrate fans. The technology isn't the problem; how it's used needs improvement.

I am totally in favor; it is humanly impossible for one or several people to see everything happening right in front of them. Without VAR, there would be so many plays that wouldn't be clearly seen and so many fouls missed, which would only make the game more prone to cheating.

VAR has really been an effective addition to football. There have been some errors made in refereeing in the past, which cost teams matches, points and trophies. But now the technology can be used to make near perfect decisions, so I’m hundred percent in support.

Anyone who's against the introduction and usage of VAR in football is a cheat. Even though the VAR have been inconsistent, it have also saved so many games from being ruined by errors.

I like VAR but I find delayed decision frustrating. When they take time to make a decision during he heat of the game, excitement drops. sadly, even the VAR decision seems to be interpreted wrongly, as we saw this happening during the FIFA world cup

There's no way VAR is going to be used without delaying play. It's just inevitable because they need to get the decision right or using the VAR will be a total waste of time.
