New Chelsea owner Todd Boehly was utterly confused after the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) cancelled two goals scored by the Blues in their Premier League game against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The American business tycoon was earlier announced as the new owner who takes over from Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich at Stamford Bridge.

In a post on Twitter, spotted by Sports Brief, Todd Boehly who was watching from Abramovich's seat could not believe his eyes as the VAR cancelled Chelsea's goal in the first half.

What was Todd Boehly's reaction after VAR cancelled Chelsea's goals?

Chelsea was hoping to return to winning ways after plunging into a string of poor results, particularly with their prospective buyer watching from Abramovich's seat.

The Blues first broke the deadlock through Timo Werner but was ruled out because the German was deemed to have fouled his opponent in the 36th minute.

But the real drama will ensue two minutes later when Loftus-Cheek thought he had given Chelsea the lead.

With Boehly celebrating the first goal under his era, VAR stepped in to rule out the goal much to his surprise.
