The Premier League has revealed Chelsea weren't awarded a penalty against West Ham because Tomas Soucek's hand 'broke his fall'.
Soucek handled an effort from Conor Gallagher in the 89th minute of the 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, leading to several Chelsea players begging referee Craig Pawson for a penalty.
Pawson, the on-field official, dismissed claims, while a VAR check was short and backed up the original call.
The decision left several fans scratching their heads as to why a spot kick wasn't given, but the reason has now been revealed.
