Fans can't believe Brentford were not awarded a penalty after a 'clear push' on Sergio Reguilon by the West Ham star
Fans were left baffled after Brentford were denied a penalty for what looked like an obvious push on Sergio Reguilon.
Shortly after, Neal Maupay scored for the Bees to make it 2-1 western hamThe Tottenham loanee was running to recover a ball in the Hammers area, but was stopped in his tracks.
Mohammed Kudus seemed to push him in the back and made him fall, with Reguilon asking for a penalty.
The point of contact came inside the area but Reguilón fell just outside the area, however, referee Simon Hooper chose not to even signal a foul and the fans couldn't believe it.
Addressing X, one said: “Kudus pushed Reguilón from behind and they say there is no penalty?”
“Am I missing something? How is that not a penalty? Kudus runs up and attacks Reguilon from behind?” he added a second.

A third said: “So the guys jump in and get cheap penalties, but Reguilón gets hoisted on their shoulder and says no. At least it was a foul, not a WH ball.”
“Not sure how Kudus got away with that clear push on Reguilon's back,” added a fourth.
Shortly after, Reguilon fouled Kudus and received a yellow card, and was lucky not to receive a second after kicking the ball while Hooper brandished the yellow card.
Jarrod Bowen scored twice in the first seven minutes to give West Ham the lead before Maupay finished. Thomas Frank's Men. Back to the game.
