Patrick Vieira told he's wrong as Thiago Silva's Crystal Palace handball verdict delivered

Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira was left furious when Chelsea defender Thiago Silva was only shown a yellow card for a handball in the Blues' 2-1 win at Selhurst Park on Saturday. Chelsea came from behind with goals from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Conor Gallagher giving Graham Potter his first win as Blues boss.

However, the game could have been completely different if Silva had been shown his marching orders after committing a handball in the 33rd minute. The Brazilian handled the ball on the floor as Jordan Ayew tried to dribble past him - and after a VAR check, Silva was only shown a yellow card for the offence.
