Moyes was unable to contain his emotions at the Amex Stadium when Beto struck in the seventh minute of stoppage-time to cancelout Pascal Gross\u2019 73rd-minute opener. <\/p>\n
The Scot\u2019s delirious dash forced referee Chris Kavanagh to show him a yellow card for leaving the managers\u2019 technical area on the touchline. <\/p>\n
Moyes\u2019 joyful pitch invasion was reminiscent of David Pleat dancing on to the Maine Road pitch after his Luton side avoidedrelegation from the top-flight on the final day of the 1982-83 season with a win against Manchester City. <\/p>\n
Moyes briefly contemplated capping his memorable celebration with a knee slide. And although the 62-year-old thought betterof that idea in the end, he insisted the yellow card will not curb his enthusiasm in future. <\/p>\n
\u201cI hope you\u2019re not going to call me \u2018Pleaty\u2019 going forward,\u201d Moyes said. <\/p>\n
\u201cThe difference is David Pleat doesn\u2019t get booked for it, they think it\u2019s OK and everybody enjoys seeing the celebrations. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re killing it that the managers can\u2019t come out of their technical area to celebrate a goal, knee sliding, do things which give you people quite a bit to talk about.<\/p>\n
\u201dNo thoughts about what football means to the managers… It\u2019s sad isn\u2019t it. F***ing sad. You know what I mean?\u201d<\/p>\n
Asked if he would do it again, Moyes replied: \u201cI bloody will do it again! \u201cActually, if I\u2019d been a bit more mobile, I might have done a knee slide. That would only have got me a yellow as well, so I might as well have gone the whole hog.\u201d<\/p>\n

ARSENAL EXTEND MARGIN AT TOP<\/p>\n
Arsenal settled any fears of a collapse in their pursuit of a first Premier League title in 22 years by thrashing Leeds 4-0 on Saturday as Chelsea came from two goals down to beat West Ham 3-2. <\/p>\n
The Gunners\u2019 advantage over Manchester City and Aston Villa, who are both in action on Sunday, stretches to seven points as Mikel Arteta\u2019s men took another step towards the title at Elland Road. <\/p>\n
A first home defeat of the season last weekend to Manchester United capped a run of just two points from a possible nine inArsenal\u2019s previous three league games. <\/p>\n
After finishing runners-up for the past three seasons, questions were raised over the mentality of Arteta\u2019s men and theirability to get over the line in a title race. <\/p>\n
The visitors were dealt another blow before kick-off as Bukayo Saka was injured in the warm-up.<\/p>\n
But his replacement Noni Madueke played a major part in inflicting just a second defeat in 12 games on Leeds.<\/p>\n
\u201cA very impressive performance, a very impressive result, especially in the context that we\u2019ve done it,\u201d said Arteta.<\/p>\n
Madueke\u2019s cross was headed in by Martin Zubimendi to open the scoring. Leeds goalkeeper Karl Darlow could then only parryanother dangerous delivery from the England winger into his own goal before halftime. <\/p>\n
Despite a fine run of form, Leeds remain only six points above the relegation zone.<\/p>\n
Their first defeat at home since November was confirmed when the much-criticised Viktor Gyokeres latched onto Gabriel Martinelli\u2019scross to blast in his 11th goal since joining Arsenal from Sporting Lisbon. <\/p>\n
Gabriel Jesus came off the bench to round off the scoring with a blistering strike four minutes from time.<\/p>\n
Arsenal will be hoping local rivals Tottenham can do them a favour when City visit north London, while Villa host Brentfordon Sunday. <\/p>\n

CHAOTIC FINAL MOMENTS IN CHELSEA COMEBACK <\/p>\n
Enzo Fernandez\u2019s stoppage-time winner capped Chelsea\u2019s thrilling fightback from two goals down to beat West Ham 3-2 in a dramatic London derby on Saturday.<\/p>\n
But it didn\u2019t come without serious acrimony, as West Ham\u2019s Jean-Clair Todibo was sent off for violent conduct after tempers boiled over in the final seconds. <\/p>\n
Todibo couldn\u2019t handle West Ham\u2019s collapse and he saw red after grabbing Joao Pedro around the throat in the 96th minute. <\/p>\n
Liam Rosenior\u2019s side trailed to first-half goals from Jarrod Bowen and Crysencio Summerville at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n
But Chelsea ignored the half-time jeers from their angry fans, staging a brilliant revival after the break.<\/p>\n
Joao Pedro reduced the deficit before Marc Cucurella headed the equaliser. For the first time in the Premier League era, Chelsea came from two down at half-time to win thanks to their captain as Fernandez netted in stoppage-time.<\/p>\n
In what Rosenior had labelled Chelsea\u2019s \u201cbiggest match of the season\u201d, the Blues showed their character in memorable fashion.<\/p>\n
They climbed to fourth in the Premier League as Rosenior became only the fourth English manager to win his first three Premier League games after Bobby Gould, Sam Allardyce and Craig Shakespeare.<\/p>\n
Rosenior has overseen six wins from seven games in all competitions since arriving from Strasbourg to replace Enzo Maresca.<\/p>\n
The highlight of Rosenior\u2019s impressive start had come on Wednesday when the Blues fought back from 2-1 down to beat Napoli 3-2 in Italy, securing a place in the Champions League last 16.<\/p>\n
But this was arguably even more eye-catching than that success, given how Rosenior turned the tide after Chelsea\u2019s wretched first half.<\/p>\n
Rosenior will bid to work another miracle on Tuesday when Chelsea look to overturn a 3-2 deficit in the League Cup semi-final second leg at Premier League leaders Arsenal. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Everton manager David Moyes blasted the killjoy rules that earned him a booking for sprinting onto the pitch…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":450761,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[178577,34341,53035,228149,64,63,689,112124,6257,3464,233012,13383,69240,233010,9006,233014,233015,77918,233017,2057,596,8314,6226,2105,136013,198887,45454,233016,233005,233019,233020,233011,67609,53055,208015,2022,233013,11999,6255,233021,211654,673,3583,677,1614,233018,104864,233008,233006,6230,85,46409,670,233007,22294,233009,3586,67740],"class_list":["post-450760","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-alex-scott","tag-alexander-volkanovski","tag-arsenal-football-club","tag-arsenalpremier-league","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-australia-and-new-zealand","tag-carl-recine","tag-champions-league","tag-chelsea-football-club","tag-chris-kavanagh","tag-city-of-leeds","tag-city-of-liverpool","tag-consecutive-league-win","tag-david-moyes","tag-david-pleat","tag-earning-booking","tag-enzo-fernandez","tag-epic-celebration","tag-europe","tag-football","tag-gabriel-jesus","tag-gabriel-martinelli","tag-getty-images-inc","tag-home-city","tag-home-defeat","tag-joao-pedro","tag-joyful-pitch-invasion","tag-karl-darlow","tag-killjoy-rules","tag-knee-slide","tag-last-gasp-equaliser","tag-league-games","tag-leeds-united-football-club","tag-liam-rosenior","tag-london","tag-manager-blasts-killjoy","tag-manchester-city-football-club","tag-manchester-united-football-club","tag-matt-mcnulty","tag-michael-carrick","tag-new-south-wales","tag-northern-europe","tag-oceania","tag-premier-league","tag-relegation-fight","tag-relegation-zone","tag-scottish-manager-david","tag-side-avoidedrelegation","tag-sporting-lisbon","tag-sports","tag-stoppage-time","tag-sydney","tag-technical-area","tag-title-race","tag-triple-halftime-substitution","tag-united-kingdom","tag-yellow-card"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/450760","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=450760"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/450760\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/450761"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=450760"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=450760"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=450760"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
