Ref Moss missed foul ... then angry Eden took his revenge

- GRAHAM POLL

WHAT A few minutes Eden Hazard had at the Hawthorns on Saturday. Jon Moss missed a nasty tackle by Gareth Barry on the Belgian playmaker early in this match. It was a sideways-on, studs-in tackle which caught Hazard on the top of both boots. Moss ignored the incident, which should have been a free-kick and a yellow card for Barry. Hazard was clearly angry with both Moss and Andy Halliday, the assistant referee who should have seen the incident. His reaction was to set up Alvaro Morata for Chelsea’s opening goal. Following that Hazard made his dissatisfa­ction with the officials clear and then fouled Grzegorz Krychowiak and was rightly cautioned.
