Earlier this year, in January, Xavi, Barcelona FC's coach, called VAR a 'disgrace' on live TV. His outburst came after Barca had a goal canceled by the technology, and you could feel his frustration.

But here's the twist: VAR hasn’t always been against Barcelona. Actually, it has helped them out quite a number of times with some pretty questionable calls, to the point where people jokingly call the club 'Varcelona.'

Coupled with the ongoing drama of the club allegedly bribing former referee officials to win matches, it’s hard not to wonder just how much the technology actually favors the Spanish giants.

Don’t believe us? Let’s dive into ten times Barcelona seemed to have VAR on their side and came out on top.
