All eyes day after day point to the VAR. This technology that came to help referees make football fairer, and it seems that what is resulting is dividing spectators and sowing even more doubts. The truth is that it is a very useful tool, which used correctly can be very beneficial. The point is that criteria need to be unified around its use, so that we are all clear in which situations the VAR should enter and when and what criteria the referees follow when making decisions.
It is clear that the controversy will always be there, and in most cases one of the two teams will not be happy with a referee’s decision. This is why doubts arise regarding the VAR, given that it came as a tool to impose justice and put an end to discrepancies in referee decisions, and the opposite is being achieved.
Next, we will show the comparison between the current LaLiga classification after 37 matchdays played, and the one that would exist if the VAR did not exist.

There would be no significant changes in the European and relegation zones. We are entering matchday 38 in which there is nothing at stake, the European places have already been redistributed and the teams that will be relegated to LaLiga Hypermotion have already been confirmed, but without the VAR, all this would be very different, Cádiz would still continue with life until the last day, being able to be saved. As in the top zone of the table, only one point would separate Real Madrid from FC Barcelona, so the league title would not be known until the end of matchday 38.
