Refereeing Analysis: Wwin League Round 24

The FFBiH Referees Committee provided explanations for key refereeing decisions from the 24th round of the BiH Wwin League:

  • NK GOŠK vs. FK Sarajevo
    • 53’: After a cross into the home team’s box, the away side scores and takes the lead. A VAR / OFR review was initiated to check the APP (Attacking Possession Phase) and validity of the goal, with suspicion that the FK Sarajevo’s forward had scored using his hand. However, the footage doesn’t clearly show whether the ball hit the attacker’s or defender’s hand - there's no clear evidence, so it’s deemed a wrong VAR intervention. Since there’s no conclusive proof of a foul, the referee correctly allows the FK Sarajevo goal.
  • FK Sloboda vs. FK Velež
    • 23’: FK Velež’s player No. 7 from clearly plays the ball, then accidentally steps on the opponent, without excessive force, intent, roughness, or additional movement. VAR wrongly intervenes and calls for an OFR (On-Field Review). After checking the footage, the referee correctly sticks to the original call and shows a yellow card to FK Velež’s No. 7.
    • 83’: VAR checks the APP and the validity of FK Sloboda’s goal. VAR referees correctly spot a foul at the start of the attack by FK Sloboda’s No. 5. Proper VAR intervention follows with an OFR, and the referee rightly disallows the goal.
  • FK Igman vs. FK Željezničar
    • 82’: In a challenge for the ball, FK Igman’s No. 15 doesn’t play it but instead carelessly brings down FK Željezničar’s attacker. The referee misses the foul. VAR steps in correctly, calls for an OFR, and the referee makes the right call by awarding a penalty to the away team.
  • HŠK Posušje vs. FK Sloga
    • 65’: While contesting the ball, FK Sloga’s No. 15 clearly trips the home team’s attacker. The referee fails to immediately award a penalty. After a proper VAR intervention and an OFR, the referee changes his decision and correctly gives a penalty to HŠK Posušje.
