Rooney: VAR Got It Right to Disallow West Ham's Late Equaliser
Wayne Rooney has backed the VAR review that ruled out West Ham’s 94th-minute goal at the Emirates, calling the incident “a clear foul” on keeper David Raya. West Ham believed they had rescued a point when Callum Wilson found the net in stoppage time. Referee Chris Kavanagh overturned the goal after a VAR check flagged a possible foul. Rooney argued that the challenge on Raya was obvious and affected his ability to reach the ball. He praised VAR for handling the decision well in such a big game. The 1-0 win puts Arsenal closer to the Premier League title, while West Ham’s survival battle intensifies.
