David Moyes made his way on to the pitch to confront the officials after Everton were denied what appeared another stonewall penalty in the 3-3 home draw with Manchester City<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

David Moyes claimed the Premier League risked becoming a \u201cfree-for-all\u201d after Everton<\/a> were denied a second-half penalty. The Blues boss ended the 3-3 draw with Manchester City on the pitch as he highlighted his disbelief to the officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He would not go into detail on the response he received at the end but made clear his frustration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was the latest big decision Everton<\/a> has gone against them and comes at the end of a week that started with a complaint to the PGMOL after Mateus Fernandes escaped punishment for a clear handball at West Ham United last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the latest controversy, which saw Bernardo Silva grapple with Merlin Rohl with the game in the balance as the Blues led 3-2 in the 87th minute, he said: \u201cI’ve seen it, I’ve had a look. If that doesn’t get given as a penalty then it’s an absolute free-for-all from now on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI might have to start coaching my defenders how to defend differently completely. It looks like now you’re able to sort of grapple and wrestle on the ground if you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI’m absolutely amazed and look, this is on the back of a terrible decision at West Ham when we don’t get a penalty there either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHey, that’s not the reason why we don’t get the result tonight, but I think it’s another pointer just to say that I find it really hard that that wasn’t given.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI think most football supporters will find that really difficult that that penalty wasn’t given.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moyes<\/a> was also frustrated with elements of the timing of Man City\u2019s equaliser. Asked whether he had an issue with the goal coming in the 97th minute when six had been added on, he said: \u201cNo, because we brought two subs on, but I’ll tell you one of the frustrations about it, they’re allowed to add 30 seconds on, so he was entitled with six minutes over, so if you add it up, we’d go to 97.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut the difference was the third sub we made, our player was already off the pitch. So actually, there would have been no need to add the 30 seconds, really.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut because of the rule, I’m guessing he’s just said, hey, I’ve got to add 30 seconds on if you make a sub in injury time, which we did do.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"David Moyes made his way on to the pitch to confront the officials after Everton were denied what…\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[16],"class_list":{"0":"post-222","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-uncategorized","7":"tag-everton"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=222"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":224,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222\/revisions\/224"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=222"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=222"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=222"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
