West Ham ruthlessly troll Chelsea over controversial VAR decision

West Ham's official twitter account has poked fun at Chelsea and the controversial decision not to award the Blues a penalty during the 1-1 draw between the two sides on Saturday afternoon.

Late on in the clash at the London Stadium, Graham Potter's side were left furious over the fact they weren't awarded a spot-kick after what looked a certain handball from Hammers midfielder Tomas Soucek. Conor Gallagher's effort seemed to take a clear deflection off of Soucek's hand on the way into Lukas Fabianski's grasp.

As a result, the Chelsea players swarmed Craig Pawson but he was unmoved. While the incident was subject to a VAR check, the officials at Stockley Park didn't see anything in the replays they thought was worth overturning.
