“The decision to use goal-line technology for the European Qualifiers lies with the host association for each match,” the European soccer governing body said. “If the host association plans to implement goal-line technology, they must also obtain written consent from the visiting association in order for it to be used,” UEFA added. “In 2019 UEFA had proposed to (world soccer governing body) FIFA the implementation of VAR in the current World Cup qualifiers,” it said. The result left Serbia top of the group on four points from two games, ahead of Portugal on goal difference. The two teams meet again in the reverse fixture in Portugal on Nov. 14 in the final round of matches.
