Former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher has shared his views on the controversial decision to disallow West Ham United’s late goal at Chelsea.
Maxwel Cornet thought he scored his first Hammers goal since his summer arrival from Burnley when he fired the ball into the roof of the net to equalise in second half stoppage-time for the visitors at Stamford Bridge.
Michail Antonio had given West Ham the lead but Ben Chilwell and Kai Havertz put the Blues in front. Cornet’s goal would have made it 2-2 with just minutes remaining, but VAR official Jarred Gillett called referee Andrew Madley over to the monitor to check on a possible foul by Jarrod Bowen on goalkeeper Edouard Mendy in the build-up.
