"It's not acceptable. Week in, week out, we've had bad decisions. I
mean, it is a bad decision. It's not the first time and probably won't
be the last," Carroll told British media.
Leicester's Jeffrey Schlupp is fouled by West Ham's Andy Carroll in the
area resulting in a penalty to Leicester
Striker Andy Carroll has accused referee Jonathan Moss of trying to even things up with some "bad decisions" in Sunday's Premier League draw with 10-men Leicester City that harmed their Champions League qualifying hopes.
West
Ham led 2-1 deep into injury time at the King Power Stadium but Moss
awarded a penalty in the 94th minute after Carroll had brought down
Jeffrey Schlupp in the area. Leonardo Ulloa converted from the spot to
snatch a point.
"It's not acceptable. Week in,
week out, we've had bad decisions. I mean, it is a bad decision. It's
not the first time and probably won't be the last," Carroll told British media.
"I
think he's trying to even it up... We could be third and flying. Now
we're still fighting for fourth, fifth spot and we're slipping down by
losing these points. It is just disappointing and there's nothing we can
do about it."
Moss had earlier penalised
Leicester's Wes Morgan for a pull back on Winston Reid, which allowed
Carroll to convert from the spot to make it 1-1 before a stunning strike
from full back Aaron Creswell put the visitors ahead.
The
draw left sixth-placed West Ham seven points behind Arsenal, who are
fourth and hold the final Champions League qualifying spot, with five
games left.
