Claudio Ranieri admitted Javier Hernandez’s punch knocked the stuffing out of Fulham after their 3-1 Premier League defeat at West Ham.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mexico striker Hernandez cancelled out Ryan Babel’s third-minute opener for the visitors by jabbing the ball into the net with his hand at the far post.<\/p>\n

Referee Lee Mason and his assistants missed the handball but video technology would have surely seen the goal disallowed, adding yet more weight to the ‘pro-VAR’ case.<\/p>\n

That was scant consolation to Fulham boss Ranieri, though, as his struggling side crashed to further goals from Issa Diop and Michail Antonio.<\/p>\n

Yet hardly any Fulham players appealed for handball, and Ranieri only saw the infringement when it was replayed on the big screen – to the dismay of the travelling fans.<\/p>\n

“It was a big pity with the goal, the referee was covered,” said the Italian. “I hope with the VAR next season it will be better.<\/p>\n

“I didn’t see but I watched it on the screen. Maybe also the other players didn’t see it, and maybe of the West Ham players only Chicharito (Hernandez) knew the truth.<\/p>\n

“Now football is so fast and you have so many players in the box, for the referee it’s very difficult to watch everything, so VAR could be better.<\/p>\n

“It’s important in England to have VAR to help the referee.”<\/p>\n

Another defeat left the Cottagers eight points adrift of safety with just 11 matches to go, and that bleak picture could look even worse after the weekend fixtures.<\/p>\n

“It will be a miracle,” added Ranieri. “But we must fight together. If you fight you have one chance, if you don’t you won’t.”<\/p>\n

West Ham recovered from a dodgy opening few minutes, during which Babel could have scored twice, to eventually run out comfortable winners and climb to ninth.<\/p>\n

“We never thought it would be an easy game, teams fighting for relegation give everything,” said manager Manuel Pellegrini.<\/p>\n

“After those first 10 very strange minutes, we dominated the game. I think it was a good performance taking out those first 10 minutes.<\/p>\n

“From my position on the bench I really didn’t see (the handball). Also after seeing the TV, it is a handball but nobody complained from Fulham for very long, they were not sure.<\/p>\n

“I don’t think it was the goal that decided the game, we scored three and their goalkeeper saved four or five more chances for us to continue scoring.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
