SERBS WERE DENIED PENALTY AGAINST SWISS BY NOT USING VAR

In the technology age any sports for that matter has to adopt new referral techniques to minimize human errors of referees,umpires etc.After adoption however the adaptation takes time and VAR in its first edition is work in progress to stabilize by next WC or so.However even the best technology is only as good as the user and with a 3rd rate user even a first rate technology will end up giving 3rd rate result only.If I remember correctly in the Swiss-Serbia match for some strange reason the referee chose not to take help of VAR in clear case of penalty that should have gone to the Serbs due to foul inside the box.I think it was a German referee.It was shocking and appeared a clear case of partisan decision that would have cost the Serbs dearly.Why not as in cricket in football too allow 1 or 2 referrals per team each half?I think this way VAR can be improved over the time.
