    Is this the very first occasion that a match at the Women’s European Championship has made use of the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) system?

    For the very first time in the annals of the Women’s European Championship, each and every one of the matches that take place during the championship’s final phase will make use of video assistant referees. This will be a first of its kind in the history of the Women’s European Championship.

    Despite this, video assistant referees have been used in women’s soccer competitions in the past, the most notable instance being the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup. In this match, they will be utilized in men’s soccer for the very first time after being introduced as a new rule.

    As a result of a decision that was taken with the assistance of the video assistant referee, Argentina was successful in removing Scotland from the competition (VAR). It was determined that Scotland’s goalkeeper, Lee Alexander, had shifted out of position while attempting to save a penalty kick. Alexander was playing for Scotland. The kick in question had been awarded to the team that we were going up against in the competition.
