The Tanzania Premier league has announced that Video Assistant Referee (VAR) will be in use next season.
The development was confirmed on Monday afternoon by the Tanzania Premier league.
In Africa, North African countries and South Africa started using VAR last season while in Ivory Coast it will be in the use next season.
The use of video assistant referees (VARs) in football was first included in the Laws of the Game in 2018/19.
FIFA assesses the technological aspects of VAR systems through the FIFA Quality Programme for VAR Technology.
For starters, two different VAR set‑ups are currently permitted: full VAR systems, which use at least four and up to an unlimited number of cameras; and VAR Light, which uses four to eight cameras and requires the system to be fully operated by the VAR themself.
