West Ham United boss David Moyes expressed frustration over the late penalty call that allowed Sheffield United to snatch a last-gasp draw at Bramall Lane. Oli McBurnie secured a point with a penalty in the 13th minute of injury time after a clash with Hammers’ goalkeeper Alphonse Areola during a cross from James McAtee. Referee Michael Salisbury awarded the penalty in the eighth minute of added time, and after a goalie change, Łukasz Fabiański couldn’t deny McBurnie, sparking wild celebrations at Bramall Lane.

Earlier in the game, Salisbury awarded West Ham a penalty for a Gus Hamer foul on Danny Ings and sent off United’s Rhian Brewster after a VAR check. Moyes, careful with his words about referees, emphasized his dissatisfaction with the penalty decision involving Areola, stating, “Absolutely, he was fouled. I think it was a foul on the goalkeeper.” Moyes refrained from delving further into referee critique but hinted at the growing uncertainty surrounding officiating standards in the game.
