Snodgrass takes a booking for the team after a very poor pass to him is intercepted.

0-1 HT

ANTONIO IS A BEAST :wahoo:

Whitehorsehammer

If we could play to that level for the rest of the season we would be fine.

Re the pen that was not given, my commentary was all about the shove on Antonio whilst I thought the one on Haller was far more egregious, the ball was going to pass Antonio but Haller was in prime position to actually attack the ball.

For me the penalty should have certainly been given for the shove on Haller.

Sneaky just in time edit

SuzanneClaret

Great start to the first half.

Antonio to Haller and then a good strike by Fornals, who would have thought that having two up top would look like it might work out :whistle:

Redmond is their best player by far. Bizarre substitution, hope we sign him in Jan.

Best first half i've seen fron west ham this season.
Antonia is immense and playing two up front has definitely seen haller more involved.
Mind as someone once famously said "it's a game of two halves"

To not win this would be horrific. Southampton are garbage.

They've been better than Arsenal were until they scored their first goal...

That’s what I was thinking just before Arsenal scored.

Antonio

Nothing more than he deserves

Monster.

SuzanneClaret

VAR

Hand ball.

chicagohammer

Haller to Antonio :goal:

buffybegood

Handball?

If not, great play.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

Handballed it.

SuzanneClaret

VAR saw THAT!!!

chicagohammer

Arrrrrrrggghhhh VAR that is a travesty

Expat_Hammer

VAR should be banned

SuzanneClaret

Foul on Antonio... again.

Hamstew

Sick of this VAR

jay_in_cpt

What a load of tosh, I preffered it without VAR...not just this call, it's IMO ruining the fun, & with West Ham, we get little of that, so BOO to VAR!

SuzanneClaret

A yellow for Fredricks for the same offence as perpetrated on Antonio that didn’t result in a yellow.

:doh:

And that's his 5th, suspended for next game.

SuzanneClaret

But it was a handball.

So no goal.

Correct decision by VAR.

The penalty should on the other hand.
