NYON, Switzerland (Reuters) - Football needs uncertainty, the head of European soccer body UEFA said on Wednesday, as he criticised the way VAR technology had changed the character of football matches.

Aleksander Ceferin said that UEFA would propose soccer's rulemaking IFAB make changes to the way the VAR system, officially introduced in 2018, was being implemented, though he did not want to give more details.

"I can live with the fact that referees are human beings who make mistakes but now when technology makes a mistake, that is a problem," he said. "The line is very thin and it's drawn by the VAR so it's the subjective line of an objective fact which is a bit strange," said Ceferin.
