Moyes expressed his disappointment with the refereeing decision, stating that the goal was "completely wrong" and "harsh". He also mentioned that he had spoken to the referee and was told that they believed the player was leaning, which Moyes felt was not a valid reason for the penalty.

Moyes acknowledged that the crowd at Elland Road was intimidating, but did not feel that it affected the VAR officials' decision. He emphasized that his team's loss was due to a poor refereeing decision, rather than any excuses about injuries or player availability.

Moyes also mentioned that his team was likely to score if anyone was going to, and expressed confidence that they would make some signings in the remaining transfer window.
