Man Utd fans were seething after VAR awarded West Ham penalty for a foul by Matthijs de Ligt in Sunday's controversial Premier League clash

Matthijs de Ligt was penalised by VAR and conceded a late penalty against West Ham Manchester United fans were left seething after VAR intervened and awarded West Ham a decisive late penalty in Sunday’s controversial Premier League clash. After missing a series of gilt-edged chances, particularly in the first half, United looked likely to pay for their profligacy when Crysencio Summerville prodded the hosts into a 78th minute lead.

Referee David Coote initially saw little wrong with De Ligt’s challenge on Danny Ings but after he was ordered to take a second look by Michael Oliver the match official reversed his decision. Jarrod Bowen stepped up, kept his composure and beat Andre Onana from the spot to seal a much needed win for the Hammers who have made an underwhelming start to life under Julen Lopetegui.
