FIFA are expected to rubber-stamp video assistant referee technology (VAR) for this summer's World Cup despite lingering opposition from within and outside football.
Gianni Infantino, the president of FIFA, will oversee the governing body's meeting in Bogota happy to give the green light to the system despite a long, personal spell of scepticism.
"VAR is something positive that will bring much more to the transparency of football," said Infantino ahead of the FIFA Council meeting starting tomorrow.
"Video refereeing isn't going to be the solution to everything in football. What we want to do is avoid resounding mistakes by referees."
"I am not at all against it but we must better explain when it will be used. We will see at the World Cup."
However, Colombia coach Luis Fernando Suarez added in an interview with AFP: "It seems hurried to me. I think we should do other trials in other tournaments, analyse them well, and then put it in place."
