Rio Ferdinand, Michael Owen and Dean Henderson react after VAR ruled out West Ham United’s equalizer against Sheffield United

West Ham United suffered a 1-0 loss at the hands of Sheffield United at Bramal Lane last night – their first defeat since David Moyes returned as manager.

An error from David Martin, who had replaced an injured Lukasz Fabianski, gave the hosts the lead eight minutes into the second-half.

West Ham kept knocking on the door and had a goal correctly disallowed for offside minutes later, but Moyes thought his side had drawn level at the death after Robert Snodgrass converted a fine chance.

However, VAR ruled out the equalizer as Declan Rice handled the ball just seconds before he assisted the goal.
