JAKARTA - Norway will be the first country to leave VAR after 19 of its 32 clubs voted on Wednesday, January 22, 2025, local time, to remove video assistant referee in the top-level league, Eliteserien.
After a four-month consultation period involving clubs, players and supporters, clubs from the first and second levels of Norway chose whether to remove VAR or not. The results of the vote resulted in recommendations for the Norwegian Football Federation (NFF) to agree with the results.
The NFF is expected to make a final decision in March 2025, although the league's governing body can still cancel the vote.
