VAR rules out Ajax’s first goal against Real Madrid in the round-of-16 tie of the Champions League.

VAR has finally come into play for the first time in the Champions League’s history.

The technology was used for the first time in the game between Manchester United and PSG yesterday, but only altered a situation in the European match today.

Ajax scored the first goal of the game against Real Madrid after a brilliant half of football. However, their goal was soon ruled out when VAR came into effect.

The technology ruled the goal out for offside, bringing the score back to 0-0.

Here’s the incident:
