Joel Matip played down the suggestion West Ham United should have been awarded a penalty late on against Liverpool when asked for his opinion on the incident.
David Moyes was left furious after watching the ball strike Thiago Alcantara inside the penalty area, only for referee Chris Kavanagh not to point to the spot nor overturn the decision following a VAR review. Liverpool would subsequently hold on for a 2-1 away win thanks to a second-half header from Matip.
West Ham boss Moyes made his way over to Kavanagh after the full-time whistle to voice his frustration over this call and continued to express his anger when delivering his verdict on this spot-kick shout during a post-match interview with BT Sport and then in the after-match press conference.
