JAKARTA - Liga 1 2024/2025 will implement the use of a video assistant referee (VAR) in the new season which will start on August 9, 2024.
As a serious step for PSSI in implementing VAR, they will involve quality people.
PSSI will only summon referees who have a VAR license for its operation. To get this standard, PSSI will also conduct special training to the referee on duty in order to obtain a special license for VAR operation.
