David Moyes 'confronts' referee in furious dressing room row over Chelsea controversy

David Moyes allegedly confronted referee Andrew Madley in his dressing room after West Ham United's last-minute equaliser against Chelsea was controversially disallowed.

Substitute Maxwel Cornet capitalised on Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy's spillage to slot home with just seconds of normal time remaining at Stamford Bridge and the scoreline 2-1. But after wild celebrations in the away end and vehement appeals from the hosts, Mendy - who stayed down - was deemed to have been fouled by Jarrod Bowen in the build-up after a VAR check.

Chelsea held out for six minutes of additional time and swiped all three points before Moyes marched onto the pitch, gesticulating towards Madley. The referee wasn't safe from the West Ham boss' wrath once he made his way off the field either, with talkSPORT reporting that Moyes went into Madley's dressing room to further express his anger with the hotly-contested decision.
