The Premier League has asked the body in charge of referees in England to look into two decisions taken after video review on Saturday.
ASIA CUP 2022: FULL COVERAGE | SCHEDULE | RESULTS
West Ham and Newcastle were denied goals that were awarded by the on-field referee, following an intervention by VAR.
West Ham manager David Moyes described as “scandalous” a VAR decision to disallow what would have been a 90th-minute equalizer by Maxwel Cornet against Chelsea because Jarrod Bowen was adjudged to have fouled goalkeeper Edouard Mendy in the build-up. Chelsea won 2-1.
At Newcastle, an own-goal by Palace defender Tyrick Mitchell was ruled out for what VAR judged to be a foul by Newcastle midfielder Joe Willock on goalkeeper Vicente Guaita. The game finished 0-0.
The review by Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) will look into the two decisions specifically, not the full VAR operation.
