So why was it abandoned?
Because the dudded team refused to play? Or because the referee/association deemed it unfair that the game continue without VAR?

If they Refused, fair play to them. Could’ve been us haha.

I don’t really understand if that’s the case though cause the commentator says “it was used in the first match and therefore must be used in the second” implying that some kind of FIFA rule had been broken and must result in abandonment or a replay.

But wow.
As a side note, how are some of those players not being sent off.
