VAR: the four reviewable incidents

Goals, penalties, red cards and mistaken identity — nothing else.

VAR may intervene only for four categories: goal/no goal, penalty/no penalty, direct red card, and mistaken identity. It cannot review a second yellow. The referee’s original decision stands unless the review finds a clear and obvious error.

The myth to drop

Myth: VAR checks everything. It monitors everything, but it only intervenes inside those four categories.
