Norwich cup match set for VAR

Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology will be used for the first time in AFC Bournemouth's Carabao Cup tie with Norwich City.

For the club's fourth round tie with the Canaries on Tuesday October 30th, a multi-camera network will be installed to assist Hawkeye in providing feeds for the VAR process.

VAR was previously trialled at a number of matches in round two of the Carabao Cup this season, with further games selected for VAR use in the upcoming round of fixtures.

The technology was previously tested at Vitality Stadium, but not used, for the Cherries' Premier League game with Leicester City last month.
