  • The draw for the FA Cup fifth round is out. Here is a list of all the ties involving Championship teams left in the competition.

The article from BBC Sport discusses the ongoing debate about the use of Video Assistant Referees (VAR) in football, particularly focusing on the recent controversy involving Liverpool's wrongly disallowed goal against Tottenham. Despite the error, the article highlights that there is no significant movement towards scrapping VAR, as it is seen as a tool to improve decision-making accuracy in the game. However, the incident has sparked discussions on how VAR can be improved, with suggestions like implementing a challenge system similar to that in tennis or American football, where teams could challenge a limited number of decisions per game. The piece also touches on the broader implications of VAR, including its impact on the game's flow, the emotional response from fans and players, and the potential for human error within the system itself. Despite these issues, the consensus seems to be that VAR, with necessary adjustments, is here to stay in football.
