MAROTTA TAKES PART IN MEETING BETWEEN SERIE A REFEREES AND CLUBS

Inter's CEO Sport after the event: "Modern football needs technology. The path we're on is a positive one, dialogue can help us improve still further"

<p><strong>MILAN </strong>&ndash; Following the Lega&nbsp;Calcio meeting between Serie A referees and clubs, Inter&rsquo;s CEO Sport Giuseppe Marotta commented on what had been said about VAR: &quot;It was a very fruitful and cooperative meeting. I think modern football needs technology, which I&rsquo;m very much in favour of. Protocol needs to be improved, with there being a particular need to address fouls in the box. It&rsquo;s certainly the case that VAR is able to eradicate a lot of mistakes, but one&nbsp;of the key topics to address is handballs. I have to say that I think the instructions from the IFAB, the body that dictates the rules, are affecting things somewhat. I think this is the biggest issue to address because it&rsquo;s extremely hard to arrive at a definitive solution when it comes to determining what exactly is classed as a handball, even with VAR&rsquo;s help. As a director, I would like to stress how VAR needs to be perfected. We&rsquo;re still looking at things and getting to grips with it. We&rsquo;re not using the finished product at the moment, the tool will still be subject to changes. However, I believe the path we&rsquo;re on is a positive one, despite the mistakes that have been made.&quot;</p>
