New photo VAR to be fast-tracked into Champions League this season spelling the end for one match official

VAR will be used in the knock-out phase of this season’s Champions League.

A number of refereeing blunders have persuaded Uefa to bring forward the introduction of the technology.

VAR was not expected to be introduced in the Champions League until next season

Raheem Sterling’s stubbed-toe penalty call against Shakhtar Donetsk and Spurs’ wrongly-disallowed goal at PSV Eindhoven both raised concerns.

European football chiefs had already announced VAR would come in for the Champions League next season.

But the spate of shockers has pushed through the desire to bring the change forward, starting with the last 16 round of the Champions League in February.

And it also means VAR will be used when England play in the Nations League finals stage in Portugal in June.

A final decision will be taken by Uefa’s executive committee at its meeting in Dublin at the start of December.

But Uefa President Aleksander Ceferin is keen to see VAR in use as soon as possible and the vote is expected to go through on the nod next weekend.

The decision will see the phasing out of former Uefa boss Michel Platini’s additional assistant referees standing by each goal.

VAR is still scheduled to start in the Europa League next season, but reports claim it could be introduced for this year’s final.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
