VIDEO: Chelsea players rage at referee after seeing stoppage-time winner chalked off by VAR against Aston Villa

Premier League

Aston Villa

Liverpool

Brighton

Chelsea

<p>With the game balanced on a knife edge deep into stoppage time, Chelsea defender <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/chelsea-player-ratings-aston-villa-conor-gallagher-cole-palmer/bltfe41421f2c587eb2" target="_blank">Axel Disasi thought he bagged the winner </a>only for VAR to chalk it off due to a foul in the box from Benoit Badiashile. This led to a stampede of blue shirts heading towards the officials at full-time, with Noni Madueke picking up a caution for getting up close and personal with referee Craig Pawson. The players had to be physically dragged away by members of staff to avoid any further punishment.</p>

WATCH THE CLIP

<p>The Blues skipper reflected on the incident at the end of the game with TNT Sports, saying: "We are gutted really. I felt we should have won the game, we were hard done by. I am proud of the lads for the second-half performance. The goal at the end should have counted but it's not my decision. We can hold our heads high and take a lot of confidence."</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">"We were hard done by"<br><br>Conor Gallagher reflects on 2-2 draw with Aston Villa after thinking they'd won the game late on<br><br>🎙️ <a href="https://twitter.com/Sports_EmmaD?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Sports_EmmaD</a> <a href="https://t.co/StH1rtlKmS">pic.twitter.com/StH1rtlKmS</a></p>— Football on TNT Sports (@footballontnt) <a href="https://twitter.com/footballontnt/status/1784329160615190684?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 27, 2024</a></blockquote>

WHAT CONOR GALLAGHER SAID

<p>Mauricio Pochettino's side still have a chance of finishing inside the top seven in the Premier League but will need to beat rivals Tottenham on Thursday if they are to stay within touching distance of Newcastle. Villa extending their advantage over Spurs to seven points, but the North London club have three games in hands on their fellow Champions League contenders.</p>
