While Moyes had no real complaints about the result, he could not hide his dismay at referee Chris Kavanagh's decision to send off Balbuena after a VAR check.It looked to be a natural clash of legs but Kavanagh was instructed by the VAR to check a monitor and he returned to send off the Paraguayan, much to everyone's surprise.

"I just thought it was a really poor decision. I don't know who stopped the game. I thought it was supposed to be clear and obvious ," Moyes said."But it shows me the person making the decision has never played the game.
