According to ESPN reports, Chelsea Women's home Champions League match against Barcelona Women was interrupted for nine minutes due to a generator failure at the stadium. After the game, coach Bompasto expressed dissatisfaction with this.
In the Women's Champions League match between Chelsea and Barcelona, the game was suspended for nine minutes in the first half due to a technical glitch that disrupted all live and video streams, including UEFA streams for VAR.
Chelsea women's football coach Bonpastor said at the press conference: "It's really frustrating. We were in a good momentum, but this uncontrollable thing happened. I think this situation is unacceptable at this level of competition. I don't know if this has happened in the men's football game, but this is the first time I have seen it."
In the second half, Catarina Macario scored a goal when she touched the ball for the first time, but it was disallowed for offside. Bompasto expressed doubts about whether VAR was in use: "Honestly, I'm not sure if VAR was in use in the second half. As you can see, in the first half we were stopped for almost ten minutes and the TV signal was interrupted."
"I didn't like it very much because we were in good shape and had to stop players, maybe it was something out of control. In the second half I wasn't even sure if VAR was in use, I don't think VAR was enabled, so they didn't have any screen to check VAR, that's why."
