Sergio Busquets: The best league in the world needs the best technology
Busquets wants VAR introduced to La Liga
Barça drew 1-1 with Valencia at Mestalla
Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets called for the immediate introduction of VAR after Lionel Messi's first half goal was ruled out at Valencia.
Barça eventually drew 1-1, Jordi Alba's late goal cancelling out Rodrigo's opener, but they were left fuming as Messi's shot which crossed the line wasn't given as a goal.
"There will be a lot of things that VAR can’t clear up, but I hope that they can help with things likes today," Busquets said.
"It’s an evolution which we need. It’s something we need. And not just for this goal. La Liga has the best players in the world. It’s the best league in the world and it deserves the best technology. The goal was over the line, but neither the referee nor the assistant saw it."
Barça did show their steel to bounce back and earn a point and Busquets added: "It was a point against a difficult rival, but we deserved to win. We gave everything we could but in the end we haven’t got the three points."
