Marco Silva did not hide his disgust with the officials after Fulham’s 2-0 defeat at Chelsea, saying it was “unbelievable” that a video assistant referee review led to Josh King having his first goal in senior football ruled out when the game was goalless.
The head coach and Fulham were left seething after nothing went their way in a heated west London derby. They thought they were ahead when King scored in the 21st minute but the 18-year-old’s goal was ruled out after Michael Salisbury, the VAR, instructed the referee, Rob Jones, to view the pitchside monitor to assess whether Rodrigo Muniz had fouled Trevoh Chalobah during the buildup.
