West Ham United intend to appeal Tomas Soucek's controversial red card in their goalless draw at Fulham on Saturday night.

Mike Dean dismissed the Czech defender for violent conduct in stoppage time after he apparently raised his elbow into Aleksandar Mitrovic's face as they stood on the edge of the box.

Dean had initially waved play on but VAR official Lee Mason advised him to look at replays on the pitchside monitor, leading to the red card that left pundits, fans and Hammers manager David Moyes exasperated.

However, West Ham will appeal the decision in an effort to get Soucek's ban overturned.
