West Ham United boss David Moyes has scorned Premier League officials for their 'scandalous' decision to disallow Maxwel Cornet's stoppage-time equaliser at Chelsea on Saturday with the Scot allegedly bursting into referee Andy Madley's dressing room after the game.
Kai Havertz had put the Blues 2-1 up with just moments to go in what looked like a superb comeback victory for Thomas Tuchel's men on home turf. But when Jarrod Bowen raced through and forced Edouard Mendy into action, the ball was parried out for Cornet to smash into the top corner to leave away fans ecstatic and the Chelsea faithful with heads in their hands.
But the drama wasn't done there. VAR intervened, and a lengthy wait culminated in Madley bizarrely ruling that Bowen had either fouled the Senegalese stopper or taken the ball out of his clutch before Cornet netted. Hammers fans were left seething at the decision, whilst pundits and fans up and down the country have aired their bamboozlement at yet another controversial incident. And Moyes was not afraid to hide his anger at officials, labelling the sequence as a 'scandalous' decision.
