According to Voetbal International, Rosetti made these comments during the launch of Clear Line, a new supporters' platform from the UEFA. The platform aims to explain when the VAR should intervene in a match. Rosetti had previously met with top referees from England, Germany, Spain, Italy, and France to discuss the issue.
Rosetti believes that the current VAR system is becoming too invasive, saying, "It's football, not PlayStation. We need to be very careful with this." He wants referees to be in charge of the game, with the VAR only intervening in clear-cut errors. The UEFA also wants to reduce the number of VAR interventions, citing the infamous "Hand of God" incident involving Diego Maradona as an example of when the VAR should not be involved.
The UEFA is also looking to speed up VAR decisions, with Rosetti stating that checks should not take longer than 90 seconds. Referees will be shown still images, followed by footage at half-speed and then at normal speed. "Clear images, without too many replays. That's very important for us," Rosetti said.
The UEFA is working to standardize the application of the rules, but Rosetti acknowledges that there will always be some variation in interpretation. The focus is on making the game more consistent, rather than achieving complete uniformity.
