Westham were defeated 1-2 by Chelsea in a Premier League match on Saturday (3). In extra time, Westham's Gornet had a chance to equalize, but the VAR system ruled that Chelsea's goalkeeper Eduardo Aventis had been infringed upon first, and the goal was disallowed. After the match, Westham's team leader Moyes lost control of his emotions and was extremely angry at Aido Aventis' "fake punt", and there were even reports that he broke into the referee's dressing room in anger, expressing his total loss of confidence in the referee's decision.

Before Gernot missed the goal, Chalobahun made contact with Edouard Yavendi in a tackle, which led to the referee's decision to award Gernot a penalty for a fake punt. Moyes was outraged, saying: "It's a scandal! I've always been a supporter of VAR, but this is an unbelievably bad decision. I don't know who is in control of VAR and the most unfortunate thing is that those people are supposed to be the top referees and I have now lost all faith in referee enforcement in the Premier League."

Moyes also blasted Eduardo Aivendi's "fake punt": "The Chelsea goalkeeper faked an injury after the mistake, and did the same for the first goal, and the referee let him get away with it." According to talkSPORT, Moyes could be disciplined by the FA after he entered the referee's dressing room in an emotional state after the match.
