EPL: Brighton robbed of draw as 10-man Chelsea win
Football fans claimed Brighton were robbed when they travelled to Chelsea on Sunday afternoon.
Brighton thought they had been handed a late penalty at Stamford Bridge, giving them the chance to fire level, when Levi Colwill was deemed to have handled the ball. Referee Craig Pawson went over to the VAR monitor, overturning his decision and awarding Chelsea a drop ball.
However, fans were baffled as to why Brighton weren’t then awarded a corner. It was the another decision that left Brighton fans furious, with some claiming Chelsea star Moises Caicedo should have walked and the Blues’ earlier penalty was never a foul.
“Brighton robbed in broad daylight. Caicedo should’ve been off. It was never a pen for Chelsea, it was shoulder to shoulder. Brighton had a pen overturned and didn’t even get a corner. Changing rules now,” one fan fumed.
