'I don't know what they were looking at': Reece James hits out at officials from Chelsea's controversial draw with Tottenham as team-mate Thiago Silva takes a swipe at Anthony Taylor for missing Cristian Romero's hair pull on Marc Cucurella

Reece James and Thiago Silva have hit out at referee Anthony Taylor and his officials after Chelsea's 2-2 draw at home to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.

Kalidou Koulibaly's well-struck goal in the first half was cancelled out in controversial circumstances by Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg midway through the second half.

Kai Havertz appeared to be fouled by Rodrigo Bentancur in the build-up, while Richarlison was offside in front of Edouard Mendy when Hojbjerg shot - although neither of these resulted in the goal being overturned by Taylor and his team.

James put the Blues back in front in the 77th minute, and was hailed as the Sky Sports Man of the Match during additional time at Stamford Bridge - only for Harry Kane's equaliser to pull Spurs level again after six minutes of stoppage time.
