Top 5 new changes in VAR rules for the 2020-21 Premier League season

After so many speculation English FA has confirmed today that Video Assistant Referee [VAR] system will stay in the 2020-21 Premier League season.

VAR was introduced in Premier League last season. There was a mixed response from all the club about its credibility. It was also rumoured that it can be abolished from the upcoming season. But FA is happy to keep VAR for one more season.

Some changes in VAR rule has been implemented for the new season:

Referee Review Area (RRA)

This will help the referees to get the right decision. A VAR screen will be established at the side of the pitch. The referee can watch the replay and give his decision about goals, red cards, and penalties.

Goalkeeper encroachment on penalty kicks

This rule will not allow the goalkeeper to comes out of his line at the time of penalty kicks. If one leg of the goalkeeper is not in the goal-line and he saves the penalty, then VAR will reward the opposition team to retake the penalty. However, if the penalty kick hits the post or misses the target then this rule will not be followed.

Player encroachment on penalty kicks

If a player has direct impact on the ball, for example, they clear it or tap in a rebound, then only it will be seen as enroachment. It is also be judged only on a player’s foot and whether it’s in, or on, the penalty area or arc line at the edge of the box.

Keeping the flag down for tight marginal offside calls

At the time of immediate goal-scoring opportunity, the linesman will not raise the flag and let the game go. After the end of the attack, the linesman can rise up the flag for the earlier offside offence. If the attacks end with a goal then only VAR will check the matter.

Offside

No changes in this rule. No tolerance level will be maintained. An official Premier League press released stated: “The [offside] protocol does not allow for tolerance levels.” Any playing part of the body which is past the line of the last defender will be deemed offside, including a shoulder or a small portion of the foot.

0

The highly anticipated action-adventure game of this year, Square Enix’s Marvel’s Avengers is going to release on 4 September 2020 for platforms like PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Google Stadia, and Microsoft Windows. The game is available to pre-order on Xbox One and PS4 but the big news is that it can be early accessed 72 hours before the actual game release in Google Stadia.

Crystal Dynamics, the developer of this game have announced that the Google Stadia users can access the game early from 1st September. Stadia players get a head start of 72 hours before other platforms so, they can grab the game on that day and start playing in early access on their compatible devices.

Stadia players who will buy the Digital Deluxe edition will only get the early access of the game and the Standard edition will not get the early access. The Deluxe edition will also come with some added perks including the ‘Obsidian’ outfit pack, and Marvel legacy outfits.

The game updates will be handled by Google servers in Google Stadia. The game includes an 18GB Day One Patch so, stadia players won’t be needing to download any other patches.

This is actually great news for Google Stadia players and the only criteria they required to access the game in early access is to buy the Deluxe edition instead of Standard edition and for that, they have to pay some extra bucks. I know that PC, Xbox, and PS4 players are also eager to play the full game but you’ll to wait for 4th September.

Marc Jurado, a Barcelona academy graduate signs for Manchester United

Marc Jurado is one of the most promising players of his generation. He formed a part of Barcelona’s Juvenil A side and was expected to progress to their youth team, Barca B, within a couple of years.

The 16-year-old right-back was born in Sabadell, just outside Barcelona. He joined La Masia (Barcelona’s youth academy) at the age of 7 after impressing at local club CF Can Rull (where he had played since he was four). He has been a La Masia player for the past nine years.

But sadly, Jurado has refused several contract offers from the club worth up to €300,000 per year after having been contacted by the Red Devils. It is a fantastic signing for United, who are continuing to build an incredibly talented squad in the 16-17-year-old age group.

Fichajes.com’s Pedro Parra complains: “It is nothing new to note in these times that one of the main Old Continent powers benefits from the talent that other clubs bring out in their youth categories.”

“On this occasion, as has been a trend throughout the most recent campaigns, a foreign squad has found a vein in national territory.”

“Talent drain – Barça have let Jurado escape.”.

Manchester United has got a very good young player who could prove to be a future star and Barcelona has once again failed to keep one of their academy graduates.

Chelsea sign two defenders: Ben Chilwell and Malang Sarr

Chelsea was knocked out of the Champions League by Bayern Munich with an embarrassing aggregate score of 7-1. It seemed they had forgotten to play football as Lewandoski made a record of having 3+ goals and assists in a single Champions League match.

Frank Lampard is a quick learner and he has already started planning for the next season. Chelsea had already signed Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner. Although Chelsea finished fourth last season, they conceded 54 goals in the Premier League. Lampard has been on the lookout to sign a new defender.

Last season, he made 33 appearances for Brendan Rodgers’ side and scored three goals as the Foxes finished fifth in the Premier League.

Now, Chelsea has signed another defender, this time Malang Sarr on a free transfer from Nice for five years. The 21-year-old joined the Ligue 1 side when he was 5 and became a regular in their first team at the age of 17.

Sarr is primarily a centre back but is also adept at playing at the left of a three-man defence. He made a total of 119 appearances for Nice and scored three goals.
