Referee Andy Madley was sent to monitors at Stockley Park by VAR Jared Gillette to see once more Cornette’s goal against an apparent soft challenge by Jarrod Bowen against Chelsea goalkeeper Mendy.

West Ham captain Declan Rice agreed with the manager’s assessment of Cole, branding it “one of the worst VAR decisions since it entered the game”.
Moyes also made specific reference to Mendy’s involvement in the goal disallowed, and the West Ham manager claimed that the Senegal international deliberately feigned a shoulder injury to impede Cornette’s shot.
“The goalkeeper tried to do the same with the first goal,” Moyes said. “He feigned a shoulder injury. It didn’t stop him from playing for the last 15 minutes, or for how long after that.
“Jarrod said he didn’t touch the goalkeeper at all. [for the second goal]As you can see, he’s about to jump over it. If there’s anything, it’s just the back foot. The goalkeeper had already mishandled the ball, which he traveled 4–5 yards and could not recover. “
Jarrod Bowen has been ruled guilty of a foul on Edouard Mendy in the build-up of West Ham’s equalizer.
When asked about the VAR call at his press conference, Tuchel said: It builds on the situation at Tottenham.”

“I do not know the method [it can be where] You can get a corner by fouling the goalkeeper when you are in an offside position. That was the build-up to the first corner. It was like against Tottenham, but I stopped talking.”
