Governing bodies across Europe are considering restarting their competitions without the intervention of VAR, for fear that its usage could break social distancing rules in the wake of COVID-19.


As leagues plan their returns, with a whole host of different approaches to the crisis being mooted, the idea of playing matches behind closed doors with a minimum number of personnel required for the event to take place is likely a reality.



But according to French publication RMC Sport , leagues are grappling with the idea of whether to use VAR when the football does return.


VAR may be seen as an unnecessary risk to take when trying to resume, with on-pitch officials capable of making the majority of decisions.


Furthermore, social distancing measures could be impinged as the operators gather around the office screens to assess the decisions more closely.


Discussion of creating a plexiglass screen to place in between the officials has been mooted, but may be seen as a needless task in order to ensure that fixtures can be completed.


Uefa are considering completing the 2019/20 Champions League across a 17-day period in the month of August.

Besides, that they are ready to play means they will all be tested and plans are in place to house them in one place, world cup style.

Club teams like Barcelona need Car, otherwise people like Suarez and Messi will keep diving and claiming "I was dribbling"...

Did you just say Messi will dive. Who dives the most between Ronaldo and Messi.
You just talk gibberish sometimes.

Nun' much tho, its just NWO loading....

soon there won't be need for stadiums, markets, worship centres, learning centres, etc

They just have to be forced out of existence.

This is a New World Order with a new set of realities

something like, We can actually live a normal life without stepping out of the doors, let's just learn to adjust. The covid-19 pandemic was invented to allow us self tutor ourselves on the introduction to New World Order realities

got it?

Just a new way of living, the only problem is that they're using extreme measures to initiate the NWO.

don't panic though, they still got some drop of conscience left in them, they're gonna withdraw the attack soon but nothing will ever be the same.
