The Premier League’s second top-scorer – with 22 goals this season – was shown a second yellow card early in the second half after going to ground in the West Ham penalty area.
He confronted Moss, who was criticised for his performance by Match-of-the-Day pundit Alan Shearer, before leaving the field.
