thedailymirror--2020-07-01--Moyes and Antonio delighted as West Ham overcome VAR controversy

David Moyes admitted he was “ spewing ” at VAR again before West Ham took a giant step towards salvation .
Substitute Andriy Yarmolenko 's 90th-minute winner sent the Hammers three points clear of the drop zone and clinched a home-and-away double over Chelsea .
But Moyes , who celebrated the Ukrainian winger 's winner animatedly on the touchline , was earlier raging when VAR official Jon Moss took three minutes to chalk off a Tomas Soucek goal in the first half .
A PGMOL statement has since declared : `` In the 34th minute of West Ham United v @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was disallowed following a VAR Review for an offside offence against Michail Antonio .
`` The on-field decision was to award the goal , but the VAR advised the referee that Antonio was in an offside position and directly in the line of vision of Kepa Arrizabalaga . ''
The West Ham boss said : “ This VAR stuff ...
I 'm beginning to lose faith with it .
At that moment I thought everything was going against us .
“ I was spewing – I was thinking , 'Are we going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Some of the things that have gone against us recently have been really poor and I ca n't explain it .
“ I did n't think our performances had been as bad as the results suggested and we had to think our luck would change .
Yarmolenko 's fine finish , with time running out , was set up by man of the match Michail Antonio , who had put West Ham 2-1 up and ran Chelsea ragged all night .
Antonio said : “ This will give us confidence and belief – @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but we had a goal taken away from us and we managed to turn it round .
“ If we can do it against a side of Chelsea 's quality , we can do it against anyone .
“ But I really dislike VAR , I really dislike it !
This season we have had so many things go against us , but it did n't stop us getting the victory .
“ When Yarmolenko cuts it onto his left foot , it 's going into the far corner .
It shows the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should n't be in this situation .
“ This is massive : There have been so many games where we have been so close , but we did n't feel sorry for ourselves and we will keep fighting to the end.
” Chelsea 's defeat left them just two points ahead of fast-improving Manchester United and rampant Wolves in the race for Champions League football next season .
Furious manager Frank Lampard , whose team have dropped 18 points from winning positions , said : “ We had an opportunity to go third @ @ @ @ @ @ @ part of the game well to win .
`` If you do n't get details right in big games , you 're going to drop points .
I think at times we have played really well this season .

Newly crowned champions Liverpool can expect a backlash from deposed title kings Manchester City with Premier League records at stake in Thursday's Etihad Stadium clash
Liverpool's newly crowned Premier League champions will be given a hugely symbolic guard of honour by Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Thursday night.
Pep Guardiola's side had been champions for the past two years - and won every domestic trophy last term - but have been swept aside this season by Liverpool's ruthless, relentless title charge.
So the guard of honour will reflect a Premier League power shift - although it will also provide no shortage of motivation for City's players as they look ahead to upsetting the Reds' title defence next term.
Most will have looked it this game at the beginning of this campaign and seen it as a potential title decider - but with Liverpool having wrapped up their 19th top-flight crown with seven games to spare it is instead a chance for both teams to strike a psychological blow.
For the home side, it is also a last desperate chance to protect their own records, with Jurgen Klopp's men on course to smash City's Premier League bests for the highest points total and highest number of goals scored in a season.

And for Liverpool, it is a chance to prove their superiority beyond all doubt.
So both sides will field the strongest lineups they can in a match which Klopp last week suggested could be "the best game ever played behind closed doors".
Liverpool can afford to give game time to the likes of January signing Takumi Minamino, and young prospects such as Curtis Jones, Harvey Elliott and Neco Williams.
But the best they can probably hope for from this one will be a cameo role from the bench, with Elliott and Minamino both having appeared late on during the 4-0 thrashing over Crystal Palace last week which ultimately ended the Reds' 30-year title drought.

Joel Matip will miss the match after the Liverpool centre-half was ruled out for rest of the campaign because of a foot injury.

City remain without the suspended Fernandinho, who completes a two-match ban.
Striker Sergio Aguero is out for the season, while centre-half Eric Garcia could miss out again due to the head injury he suffered against Arsenal.

WARNING: GRAPHIC IMAGES. Martina Kenny, co-founder of My Lovely Horse Rescue, is calling for a "horrible group" of teens responsible for beating a pony to death to be brought to justice
Heartbreaking moment pony died in front of rescuers after being brutally beaten by teens
A walker who was passing along the Grand Canal in West Dublin on Saturday night spotted a lone pony in among the trees, acting very distressed and in obvious need of help.
The man quickly rang My Lovely Horse Rescue (MLHR), and volunteers from the organisation headed out to try and locate the animal.
Darkness quickly set in and the search failed, but in the early hours of Sunday morning two volunteers, assisted by police, were able to find the poor pony with her head drooped "heartbreakingly low" and her body in a "horrendous condition", as reported by Dublin Live.
The battered and bruised pony, named by staff as Jenna, was taken in by the charity with "lumps all over her body" and a badly swollen face.

"She was weak, really really weak," said Martina Kenny, co-founder of MLHR. "Her head was low.
"We didn't think it at first but she had been beaten badly. When we got back to the van we had the vet waiting for her and he said she’s been beaten really badly, and from a couple of the cuts that she did have, she could have septicemia."
Jenna was put on a drip, as well as being given antibiotics and painkillers, while volunteers pooled together to provide round-the-clock care in hour-long night shifts.

"She laid down and rested, and we had a massive bed of straw for her so her poor head could be comfy, and she, basically, just died right there in front of us," Marina said.

"She was only about three years old, and she shouldn't have died."
When MLHR posted about the tragic outcome on Monday, witnesses said they had seen what had happened to her.
One person, who called police when she saw the horrific abuse, said a young child had been on her back riding her and treating her "very aggressively".
Martina said they described the scene, saying: "A bigger kid, about 15 or 16, came over with some object in his hand, and saw quite clearly her being beaten on the back and on the side."
The vet who helped in the effort to try and care for Jenna said her injuries were also consistent with being trampled.

Changes to UK quarantine are expected to be announced on Friday - and despite hopes they'd take effect on Monday, there's still no formal list of countries or launch date, with two-way 'air bridges' appearing to be off the table

The prosaic football under David Moyes, Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho has given way to a faster, more fluid and expansive style under Solskjaer, epitomised by United's stunning final counter-attack goal in Tuesday's 3-0 rout at Brighton.
Former United defender David May, a double Premier League and FA Cup winner, who also won the Champions League, said Solskjaer's approach had been vindicated with the team's current resurgence.
“I think the way Ole's done it and the way he's looking at players, he's not going out and buying superstars like Di Maria or Falcao, who think they're something special,” said May.
