(Reuters) -Referees body (PGMOL) chief Howard Webb said the decision to disallow Josh King's goal for Fulham in their 2-0 Premier League defeat at Chelsea last weekend was wrong and that the video assistant referee (VAR) made a mistake by intervening.
The 18-year-old midfielder's effort was ruled out after a VAR check due to Fulham's Rodrigo Muniz stepping on Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah's foot in the lead-up to the goal.
