Premier League clubs vote to continue using VAR next season

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Premier League clubs voted on Thursday to continue using VAR next season.

At the league's annual general meeting, the 20 teams decided against scrapping video assistant referees for key onfield decisions, despite a series of controversies last season.

Clubs, however, voted to make improvements “for the benefit of the game and supporters.”
