LONDON — Referees will make in-stadium announcements on the outcome of video reviews in the semifinals of this season's English League Cup. It will be the first time such a system is used in English soccer. Arsenal faces Newcastle and Tottenham plays Liverpool next month in the semifinals, which are held over two legs. As part of a trial move, referees will announce their decisions after VAR reviews to stadium spectators and viewers at home. In-stadium announcements have were trialled at last year's Women's World Cup.
