I spat it out when nobody was looking,' he told Metro Sport. <br/><br/>The strange interlude did not help his quest to reach the semi-final of the world championship as he crashed out 13-8 against Gilbert, who will face either Kyren Wilson or John Higgins in the semi-finals.<br/><br/>It is not the first time in this tournament that Maguire has made the headlines for his behavior at the baize.<br/><br/>Earlier on Wednesday, the Scotsman punched the table after playing a poor positional shot against Gilbert.<br/><br/>As he moved around the table looking to work out his next shot, Maguire punched the baize in frustration before walking back to his chair.<br/><br/>'He can't disguise his annoyance, his anger,' said Eurosport commentator Phil Yates.<br/><br/>'Why does he do it? One of these days he'll regret it in a major way. Yes, show frustration, but not like that.<br/><br/>'I like Maguire's passion, I just don't want to see him hurt himself.'

![Noni Madueke had to be dragged away from referee Craig Pawson after Chelsea's 2-2 draw with Aston Villa on Saturday evening. <br/><br/>Madueke and his teammates thought they had secured a 96th-minute winner when Axel Disasi headed home from close range to make it 3-2 in their favor. <br/><br/>However, the goal was disallowed after a lengthy VAR check that saw Pawson consult the pitch-side monitor. <br/><br/>Pawson ruled the goal out after claiming Benoit Badiashile had shoved Diego Carlos in the back in the build-up to the goal. <br/><br/>Madueke was furious with the decision and wanted to make his feelings known after the final whistle at Villa Park. <br/><br/>Madueke stormed straight up to Pawson and began shouting in his face before being restrained by Chelsea coach Jesus Perez. <br/><br/>Madueke and Benoit Badiashile could reportedly be heard saying 'It's wrong, you know it's wrong. You know it. You know it!' while pointing at Pawson. <br/><br/>Disasi, who scored the disallowed last-gasp goal, tried to calm Madueke down by grabbing him and walking him away from the situation. <br/><br/>However, it was a little too late as Pawson was less than impressed with Madueke's behavior and awarded him a yellow card before speaking to Cole Palmer. <br/><br/>Palmer appeared to plead with Pawson before being escorted away by Chelsea's backroom staff.<br/><br/>Once tensions had settled, Madueke was asked about the 96th-minute goal. He told BBC Sport: 'Should it have been three points? Yes.'<br/><br/>The 22-year-old went on to add: 'Do I think the goal should have stood? Yes. Nothing else to say about the situation.'<br/><br/>Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino was equally as unimpressed and said VAR is 'damaging English football' after his side were denied the injury-time winner. <br/><br/>'Everyone that was watching the game will feel disappointed,' Pochettino said on TNT Sports after the game. <br/><br/>'Two different things the referee said it was a foul and disallowed the goal and then went to the VAR to confirm.<br/><br/>'The referee is unbelievable and it's ridiculous. It is difficult to accept, these types of things in the semi-final [FA Cup against Man City] two weeks ago it was handball and there was no penalty, the referee didn't check it.<br/><br/>'It is painful as it has damaged English football and I think Villa players and their fans didn't understand why the goal was disallowed.<br/><br/>'They said it was foul and if you see the challenge what happened if we go into every single challenge like this it is going to be a foul and we wouldn't finish the game with 11 [players].<br/><br/>'We can talk about the performance or the decision - it is damaging the game. I am calm and it is only to help. Now, we have to move on and it will be in the headlines with the disallowed goal.'<br/><br/>It had seemed like it was going to be another night to forget as Marc Cucurella's own goal and a Morgan Rogers strike put Villa 2-0 up at the break. <br/><br/>But Chelsea responded well and drew level through Noni Madueke and Conor Gallagher before the injury-time drama.](https://cdn4.hifimov.co/picture/preview/nUE0pUZ6Yl9mZF5xoJAxov5hMKDiqv9KD1yiIGSwDzMAqGOIK00_El9-ZwDjXFfbXRucEzyAo3LhL_8cK3tlAQN5v7P/(HiFiMov.co)_furious-noni-madueke-has-to-be-dragged-away-by-his-chelsea-coaches-as-he-confronts-the-referee.webp "Noni Madueke had to be dragged away from referee Craig Pawson after Chelsea's 2-2 draw with Aston Villa on Saturday evening. <br/><br/>Madueke and his teammates thought they had secured a 96th-minute winner when Axel Disasi headed home from close range to make it 3-2 in their favor. <br/><br/>However, the goal was disallowed after a lengthy VAR check that saw Pawson consult the pitch-side monitor. <br/><br/>Pawson ruled the goal out after claiming Benoit Badiashile had shoved Diego Carlos in the back in the build-up to the goal. <br/><br/>Madueke was furious with the decision and wanted to make his feelings known after the final whistle at Villa Park. <br/><br/>Madueke stormed straight up to Pawson and began shouting in his face before being restrained by Chelsea coach Jesus Perez. <br/><br/>Madueke and Benoit Badiashile could reportedly be heard saying 'It's wrong, you know it's wrong.
