FIFA president Gianni Infantino is in favor of having Video Assistant Referees in place by the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
Infantino made the comments to Le Parisien on Monday, making it a real possibility that at the World Cup, a referee inside of a van with access to video technology can advise a match official on calls that might have been missed.
“We will multiply [the tests] over the two-year period and decide in March 2018,” Infantino said, according to Agence France-Presse.
