The Premier League had the lowest rate of VAR interventions in Europe last season
Uefa referees' chief Roberto Rosetti says some video assistant referee reviews "were not connected with football" after meeting with leaders from the top European leagues last month.
Rosetti was speaking as he launched Clear Line,, external a first-of-its-kind portal for fans which tries to lay out when a VAR should, and should not, intervene.
The lead referee officers from England, Spain, Germany, France and Italy met with Rosetti and David Elleray, the Ifab's technical director, to try to find a more uniform approach to decisions.
"We realise that everywhere now there is not any satisfaction about how VAR is impacting football," Rosetti said.
"So we want to avoid microscopic situations. The context is super important. It's football, not PlayStation. We need to be very, very careful.
"The referee must referee the match. It's something important for football, for clear situations and clear mistakes."

Rosetti conceded that trying to find a consistent approach across all leagues, which tend to have their own interpretations of some offences, would be difficult.
In particular, handball continues to cause issues across football.
The Premier League had the most relaxed interpretation of handball last season, with a handball penalty every 17.27 games.
Then came the German Bundesliga at 10.93 games per handball penalty, the Spanish La Liga on 10.56, the Italian Serie A on 10.00 and the French Ligue 1 at 9.27.
In the Champions League, it was a penalty every seven games - the highest frequency in Europe - which highlights the difficulty in reaching a consensus across competitions.
On Clear Line, Uefa has uploaded many video examples of handball situations to explain what is considered an offence.
"The idea is to be more consistent in the application of the laws," Rosetti said
