Broadcasting VAR decisions live should NOT happen as it'd be 'chaotic' and referees 'need to feel safe when they are focused on decision-making', says IFAB chief - after calls for greater transparency

Any hopes of VAR decisions being broadcasted live to the public are not in the pipelines over safety fears for officials.

Pressure has grown from managers, players and those within the media for greater transparency over how decisions come about during matches after contentious calls this season.

Tottenham's 2-1 win over Liverpool last month was shrouded in controversy when the latter were wrongly disallowed the opening goal scored by Luis Diaz.

Darren England and Dan Cook, who were the VAR and assistant VAR, incorrectly adjudged Diaz to be offside when he was clearly played on by the outstretched leg of Tottenham's Cristian Romero.
