ZURICH - Uefa says it has shaved 15 seconds off the average time it takes for the video assistant referee system to correct a decision in the Champions League this season, with the average down to one minute 30 seconds.
The European soccer body said that in 108 playoff round and group stage matches so far, 27 decisions had been corrected by the VAR system, an average of one every four games."In addition, we feel that the time taken to overturn a decision is important. So far this season, the average time for the correction of a decision has been one minute 30 seconds - 15 seconds less than last season."
Many critics feel that it has gone beyond its original remit with goals being disallowed for the tiniest of infringements such as a player being offside by an armpit. "Football needs good referees above all - match officials with a strong personality on the field of play, who take correct and courageous decisions."
