Newcastle fans explode at ‘horrible’ decision as new Chelsea footage emerges

However, it was an incident shortly before Jackson’s first goal that left the traveling fans bewildered, who exploded at the referee.

Levi Colwill sent Bruno Guimaraes to the ground as the midfielder was poised to shoot in what looked like a golden opportunity for the Magpies to take the lead.

However, Hooper waved play on, despite Colwill appearing to indicate that the foul had been outside the area for fear of having awarded a penalty, and the hosts took the lead minutes later.

VAR officials were also unable to intervene because the foul occurred outside the area, leaving Newcastle fans stunned by the decision.
