CELTIC could have been doing with VAR last Thursday when they took on Rennes. The bhoys denied a stonewall penalty and got a man sent off for no reason after the goalkeeper play acted he was hit in the head.
With UEFA always preaching they want the Champions League and Europa league to feel like similar competitions and not a massive step down it was rather peculiar when they decided not to shell out the money it would take to introduce VAR to the Europa League and just focus on their premier competition.
It looks like they have made a very quick U-turn on the issue and they will introduce VAR to the competition from the knockout stages onwards THIS SEASON Sky Sports have confirmed.
If Celtic get through their group then Celtic Park will experience the new addition to our game which has been controversial to say the very least.
The bhoys must negotiate tough ties against Lazio, Rennes and Cluj to progress and find out what this is all about first hand.
