""It's something I didn't really like because we were in a really good momentum and when you have to stop the players, I think it's not good enough at this level. Maybe it's something no one can control. In the second half I'm not even sure the VAR was on. "I think the VAR was off so they didn't have any screen to check the VAR so I think this was the reason why," she added."
""It was really frustrating, we were in a really good momentum, when this comes from something you can't control, I think, at this level, it's not good enough," "I don't know if this has happened in the men's game but that's the first time I've seen that."

A technical fault caused all streams and video feeds, including the UEFA VAR feed, to go down and produced a nearly nine-minute stoppage in the first half of Chelsea's Champions League match with Barcelona. Chelsea's momentum was interrupted and manager Sonia Bompastor described the interruption as not good enough at this level. ESPN was told that the generators powering the technology failed. Late in the second half Catarina Macario had a goal ruled out for offside, and Bompastor said she was not convinced VAR was functioning for that decision. Bompastor selected Nathalie Björn and Naomi Girma ahead of Millie Bright at centre-back.
