​West Ham boss Moyes slams disallowed goal in Brighton draw

West Ham United boss David Moyes was fuming after VAR cancelled out a goal for his side against Brighton.

The Hammers had to settle for a point against Brighton in the Premier League on Wednesday.

Antonio was judged offside in a move that led to a goal, following a lengthy VAR review.

Moyes told BBC's Match of the Day post-game: "It does not touch Michail. VAR is really good and the refereeing has been really good but we do not want to get rid of goals.

"I feel it comes off Duffy to go into the net. To rule it out and to choose to not give the goal, we're in the business to score goals, that's what people come to games for."

He added on the result: "We were disappointed [with the late goal] but probably a draw was a fair result. Brighton played well but we did half miss some opportunities on a night when the decisions didn't go for us.

"We gave the ball away regularly which is not what we are used to. All credit to Brighton, we didn't take our opportunities to go two ahead."
