The Mexican Football Federation (FMF) presented a report corresponding to the use of VAR in Liga MX , which has five tournaments. The results reflect that America has been the “most affected team” since then, according to the decisions taken with the help of Video Assistant Referee .

Accumulated errors indicate that America has suffered errors against and four errors in favor. This leaves us with a differential of six errors against the azulcremas. In the tournament just concluded, those led by Santiago Solari suffered two arbitration rulings against, and did not “enjoy” any wrong decision in favor.

The most favored team has been Tijuana, which accumulates 11 errors in their favor throughout the five tournaments in which the VAR has been present, while they have been harmed six times.

VAR: constantly improving

The report indicates that in the Tournament Grita México A 21, were carried out 1.0 044 reviews on 171 matches , where 924 silent checks, 31 checks via radio and 89 on-court checks, resulting in 89 rectifications and 15 ratifications.

On-court review time decreased to 1: 01 minutes, as well as the error ratio with VAR: 1 error each 13 matches. If there were no VAR it would be 1 error every 1. 44 matches.

The Referees Commission assures that “ will continue working with the Instruction area seeking to standardize and refine the criteria to achieve greater consistency in its application, although progress has been made, there are still many areas of opportunity and there is support from all levels of the organization for this to happen “.
