The Premier League may vote to scrap the use of video assistant referees (VAR) from next season.

Adam Chowdhury, from the What in the World team, explains how VAR works, why the technology is so controversial (including THAT Luis Diaz disallowed goal), and how it’s used in major leagues, including the Bundesliga and La Liga.

BBC Africa Sport Mimi Fawaz also shares how VAR is used in Africa, and AFCON.
