VAR Be Used For The First Time In The Bundesliga
Posted Saturday, August 19, 2017 by thesportbible.com
The opening game of the 2017/18 Bundesliga season saw the introduction of Video Assistant Referee (VAR).
Defending champions Bayern Munich kicked-off the German league campaign at home to Bayer Leverkusen.
While two new Bayern players scored on their Bundesliga debut, the main takeaway of the match was the use of VAR.
Niklas Sule gave Bayern the lead in the ninth minute before Corentin Tolisso doubled the score a few minutes later.
But their third goal came from the spot courtesy of VAR. The referee went upstairs to eventually award the penalty.
Robert Lewandowski converted the penalty. Leverkusen's Admir Mehmedi bagged a consolation with Bayern eventually sealing all three points.
