EPL: VAR may be used to check yellow cards, corner kicks

Premier League referee Howard Webb has suggested that Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology could potentially be used to review yellow cards and corner kicks in the English Premier League. Webb, who is a member of the International Football Association Board (IFAB), stated that VAR's current use in reviewing goals, red cards, penalties, and mistaken identities could be expanded to include yellow cards and corner kicks.

He emphasized that incorrectly issued yellow cards or corners could have a significant impact on the outcome of a game. Webb highlighted the importance of ensuring correct decisions in these situations, as they can directly influence the result.

The potential expansion of VAR's scope in the English game is currently under consideration.
