    Chelsea's defending from both of those corners was awful. I hope John Terry wasn't watching.

    Mark, Derby: Antonio is offside. Whether he's lying on the floor or standing up. He's offside. VAR check correct in my book.

    Derek: Utter nonsense VAR at West Ham. If it takes that long and it's that microscopic, it should not be offside. And I'm neutral.

    Phil: Even as a Chelsea fan that is a joke, pleased it wasn't given. But would be fuming if reversed.

    Yousuf Ali: As a Chelsea fan, I think the West Ham goal should have stood. If you need a forensic examination to make a decision, then the refs decision should override.

    Terry Lambert: Var is embarrassing. I’m finished with football now. Will save me a lot of money and stress.

    Tim Verhaert: Offside. He was offside when the ball rolled off him, he was offside when he was lying on the floor and he was interfering the goalie because Kepa couldn't reach the ball because he was lying in front of it. It also looked like it took a small deflection off of him.

    GOAL - West Ham 1-1 Chelseapublished at 21:02 British Summer Time 1 July 2020

    Tomas Soucek (45 mins)

    Goal this time! Tomas Soucek is Chelsea's set-piece Kryptonite! They can't deal with him and he heads down and in to level things up in first-half stoppage time.

    Remarkable.

    Referee Martin Atkinson has just given Michail Antonio a lengthy explanation of why that goal was ruled out during a stoppage in play. Martin, give us a shout at half-time if you don't mind.

    Corner to the Hammers though!

    West Ham 0-1 Chelsea

    What West Ham cannot do is allow that sense of injustice to become a ready-made excuse.

    As it stands they are back level on points with Aston Villa in the relegation trapdoor. Four goals separate them with a return journey to the Championship at the moment.

    Chelsea, meanwhile are third.

    You're still thinking about the bad news aren't you?

    Willian (Pen 42 mins)

    Willian ignores the whys and why nots and steers the penalty into the back of the net.

  9. PENALTY to CHELSEApublished at 41 mins

    West Ham 0-0 Chelsea

    Them's the breaks.

    Moments after they have goal taken away by the eye in the sky, West Ham concede a penalty as Issa Diop impedes Christian Pulisic. Who didn't need much persuasion to go down.

    David Moyes is puce.

  10. Will Aubameyang sign a new contract?published at 20:55 British Summer Time 1 July 2020

    Arsenal

    Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta, speaking to MOTD about the prospect of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang signing a new contract: "I am very positive with that. He knows what we trying to do here. Hopefully he will be here for a long time.

    "He's always trying to be the best, to score goals, to help the team. I'm really glad with him not only for the goals but his attitude overall."

    I give up really trying to work out some of these decisions. What I would say is Michail Antonio was on his back, lying on the floor. He couldn't really be expected to know if he was onside or not. He was collateral damage in that goal.

    Oh well, 0-0 it is.

    David Moyes is prowling. You can sense the fury coming.

    Michail Antonio was lying on the floor as Tomas Soucek bundled that ball in. Was he offside? That's the check. And it's a very long check too.

    It looks like a legit goal and it's great for West Ham because Chelsea have been dominating. They have something to hold onto now.

    GOAL - West Ham 1-0 Chelseapublished at 20:49 British Summer Time 1 July 2020

    Tomas Soucek

    And it was a bad corner to give away! He scored an unlucky own goal the other day but now Tomas Soucek has bundled West Ham into a scruffy, scruffy lead.

    The corner comes through the goalmouth and Soucek turns it in through the body of Michail Antonio.

    Tammy Abraham gets his defensive angles wrong and heads a cross out for a corner. Chance here for West Ham.

  19. 'Anything possible for Saint-Maximin'published at 20:47 British Summer Time 1 July 2020

    Bournemouth 1-4 Newcastle

    Newcastle United

    Newcastle boss Steve Bruce, speaking to BBC Sport: "Some of the football we played and goals we scored were a delight to watch. All credit to the players.

    "I felt we had lost that cutting edge, creating an opportunity to try and win a match. I think they are enjoying it now. You have to pose a threat and I just believe we stopped doing that after a while.

    "We enjoyed playing, that was pretty evident. There was a certain cutting edge to them. Long may it continue."

    On Allan Saint-Maximin's excellent performance: "I wasn't starting him but he bounced in yesterday like only Allan can. He has wonderful talent. Every time I go to a ground and people haven't seen him play they always say what a talent he is. He can only get better. He is capable of doing anything."

    Half an hour in and Chelsea haven't really tested Lukasz Fabianski. Need to step on the gas.
