VAR will be used for the first time in a UEFA national tournament

It follows the successful introduction of the technology in the Champions League knockout stages and Europa League final.

The head coaches of each of four teams involved were briefed in April on the use of VAR at the finals by UEFA’s chief refereeing officer Roberto Rosetti.
England head coach Gareth Southgate said: “We had positive experiences of VAR in the World Cup.
“My feeling both internationally and domestically is that, in the main, the big decisions have been right. The purpose of using VAR is to help the referees so I think it has been a help.
