(ANSA) - ROME, MAR 24 - Serie A CEO Luigi De Siervo said Monday that Italian football is bringing in some innovations to increase transparency over the working of video-assistant referees (VAR).
    He said that, as of the next weekend's Serie A fixtures, the footage being examined by VAR during checks will be shown on stadiums' big screens.
    Furthermore, the referees' audio will be hooked in stadiums for the Italian Cup semi-finals and final so officials can explain decisions after on-field reviews.
    "The objective is to make the decisions taken increasingly transparent and comprehensible," said De Siervo. (ANSA).
