Unsurprisingly, the LFP board of directors, which met this Wednesday morning, did not follow Stade Brestois, which called for the removal of VAR in the French Championship. “The law is made to evolve,” wanted to believe Didier Le Saint, the president of the Breton club in our columns, who complained of four matches with unfavorable decisions. “I am the first to want this change, but I am far from the only one. Afterwards, there are those who say it and those who don’t say it. I say it. »
There were debates, but the decision was made to continue with VAR which will even be installed in Ligue 2 next season. For the future, the board of directors of the LFP decided to continue with the current service provider, the company Hawk-Eye, for VAR and goal-line technology (in L1), whose contract expired at the end of the season. . It was in competition with Sportec Solutions. The next deal concerns L1 (VAR and GLT) and L2 (just for VAR) for an annual amount of 4 million euros.
