The Premier League is to introduce semi-automated offsides ahead of the season’s conclusion.
Following a trial in the FA Cup – and ‘non-live’ testing in the league itself – the green light has been given to introduce the technology from April 12.
The system was not without issue during its test run, which saw it first used from the Fifth Round last month.
Fans were left outraged during Bournemouth's clash with Wolves after an eight-minute delay was triggered by an issue with the technology which did not work, and which meant the VAR had to go back to the 'old-fashioned' line-drawing method to determine whether a goalscorer was offside.
