Rooney Supports VAR After West Ham's Disallowed Goal

In a recent Premier League match, Arsenal secured a vital 1-0 win against West Ham United, moving five points clear at the top of the table. West Ham believed they had equalized in stoppage time with a goal from Callum Wilson, but it was ruled out after a lengthy VAR check.

The decision was made due to a foul on Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya by Pablo Fornals. Wayne Rooney expressed his support for VAR, acknowledging the inevitable controversy that comes with such decisions.

He emphasized that the contact clearly affected Raya's ability to challenge for the ball and praised VAR's intervention in this high-pressure moment. Despite the loss, West Ham remains in 18th place, struggling to avoid relegation, while Arsenal's victory bolsters their title aspirations.
