Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink hits out at referee Anthony Taylor after West Brom draw

GUUS HIDDINK was disappointed by Chelsea's 2-2 draw with West Brom at Stamford Bridge, but felt Claudio Yacob should have been sent off.

The Blues took the lead through Cesar Azpilicueta - only his second ever Premier League goal - but were twice pegged back by the Baggies.

James McClean made sure of a point for Tony Pulis' men on the 85th minute with a last-gasp goal, and Hiddink praised their resilience.

 

"The unbeaten run goes on but we would have preferred the win," he said. 

"West Brom always bounce back, there is great character. It was an intense game."

However, while the Blues boss heaped praise on Diego Costa for his performance, he wasn't impressed with referee Anthony Taylor for his decision not to show Yacob a second yellow.

"Diego Costa controls himself, he is very dangerous. The player is concentrated on his job and doing very well.

"The manager [Tony Pulis] made a wise decision when he took over the role of the referee and took off Claudio Yacob. The referee forgot to do it."
