Headlines: IFAB set to expand trials for "Coaches Challenges" (Soccer 12/4)
from Morning Footy: A soccer show from CBS Sports Golazo Network · host CBS Sports, Morning Footy, UCL, Premier League, MLS, Soccer, Serie A
In officiating news, we've all gotten used to the three magic letters VAR. Now, we can say hello to FVS. That stands for Football Video Support. It's an alternative to VAR that will allow managers to make two coaches challenges during matches. The International Football Association Board has approved expanding trials of FVS which is designed to be used in the event of a possible clear and obvious error or serious missed incident. Coaches will get two per match and will get to keep one if a challenge leads to an overturned decision. Christina Unkel joins the show to discuss how this will be implemented and what the negative and positives are of having something like this put in place.
