00:00Yes, VAR is a pain in the ass.
00:01I completely agree that it can be annoying to score when you're a footballer
00:03Having to wait for your goal to be verified before you can celebrate a little bit later
00:07Okay, I agree with Elie Nazar.
00:09But you have to dare.
00:09You can't say that football was better without VAR.
00:11And you can't say that sometimes it's a charm to lose on that
00:13I can assure you that if there's a mistake that costs you a Champions League qualification
00:17Or something like that
00:17The charm will quickly disappear
00:19The question isn't whether VAR is perfect.
00:21But the question is whether VAR improves refereeing
00:24And the answer is yes
00:25Okay, it's imperfect, but it still allows you to correct quite a few errors.
00:28It allows us to correct errors that certainly
00:29These errors would not have been seen by a referee but were clearly visible on VAR.
00:32With VAR, we wouldn't have had a chance to shoot in rice
00:34We wouldn't have had crazy people at the World Cup etc.
00:36Finally, until 2016-2017 and the incorporation of VAR into European football
00:40We saw some crazy people there, the likes of which we hardly ever see anymore today.
00:42And certainly there are still many errors with VAR
00:44But don't forget one thing
00:45Many errors stem from misinterpretation.
00:47There are many errors that do not originate from the tool.
00:49But they come from the referee who analyzes
00:50Because there are many things that we call mistakes
00:52But in reality, it's often either hands
00:54So, stakes measured in centimeters.
00:55Finally, these are actions that fall much more into a grey area.
00:58There are decisions that are made by VAR
01:00You can put objective humans in front of you for 10 minutes
01:02If that pleases you, I can assure you they still won't agree.
01:04And then, to help Nazar, I had to say something
01:06He played a large majority of his career
01:08Lille, which was a dominant Lille in France
01:11At Chelsea and Real Madrid
01:12When you see this CV...
01:13I don't think he experienced the worst injustices of his life, if you know what I mean.
01:16say
01:16At Chelsea and Real Madrid
