David Moyes FUMES over denied penalty against Freiburg as West Ham have spot-kick claims dismissed in Europa League defeat... but backs Hammers 'home advantage' to help turnaround tie

West Ham boss David Moyes insisted his team should have been awarded a penalty in the final seconds of their Europa League defeat by Freiburg.

The Hammers have it all to do ahead of the second leg of their last 16 tie next week after succombing to a 1-0 defeat courtesy of Michael Gregoritsch’s 81st minute strike.

But Moyes’ side looked as if they would get the chance to equalise at the death when Freiburg defender Noah Weisshaupt looked to have blocked Kalvin Phillips' strike from the edge of the box with his hand.
