Kellher moves right and Bowen, now on a hat-trick, rolls left. This is a decent contest.
The ref sees what he must surely have seen in the first place – and if he didn’t why is he even there?
31 min Yup, to VAR we go, and this is going to be a penalty for West Ham, I’m certain … and yet.
30 min West Ham pump it downfield, Brentford half-clear, and Henderson, 25 yards from goal, cushions a pass … which Traore intercepts, moving into the box. So Kayode panics, trips him, and the ref waves play on, presumably relying on VAR to save him. The game proceeds.
29 min Nope, it’s a goal, and it belongs to Thiago not Collins. That’s 20 for the season for him; what a signing.
