Disallowed West Ham goal sparks controversy; VAR decision backed by referees' chief.
West Ham's late equaliser against Arsenal was correctly disallowed due to a foul on Arsenal's goalkeeper, according to referees' chief Howard Webb. The decision, made after a VAR review, has significant implications for the Premier League table.
Callum Wilson thought he had scored the equaliser in stoppage time, but the goal was overturned after VAR Darren England identified a foul by West Ham's Pablo on David Raya. Webb stated that the foul, which interfered with Raya's ability to move, was clear and justified the disallowance.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta praised the VAR's courage, while West Ham's Nuno Espirito Santo criticized the lack of consistency in refereeing decisions. The incident highlights the ongoing debate about grappling in penalty areas, with Webb announcing a season-end review on the issue.
