This year, the DFL did a trial of the system in nine stadiums in the first and second divisions.
Referees would use the sound system to clarify their decisions to the public to lead to more transparency after video assistant referee (VAR) interventions.
Including the German Cup matches, there were a total of 24 announcements by the referees. According to an interim report, the procedure and the technology worked well.
