Lookman squandered a golden opportunity to earn the Cottagers one point
when he missed from the spot under huge pressure.
The VAR encouraged referee Robert Jones to check the incident after Hammers winger Benrahma fouled Tom
Cairney right at the end of the game and he pointed to the spot after review.

The RB Leipzig loanee made a complete harsh of the penalty, attempting a Panenka which was easily saved by goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski.
After the final whistle, Lookman was on the verge of tears but was comforted by his teammates.
Former Barcelona striker and Match of the Day presenter Gary Lineker aimed a dig at the 2017 FIFA U20 World Cup winner for fluffing his Panenka penalty.
Lineker posted on Twitter : "Lookman goes for the Panenka and fluffs it. Canāt imagine what that feels like š¬".
Tosin Adarabioyo and Ola Aina started alongside Lookman in yesterday's matchday eight clash and the trio went the distance.
Despite the setback, Scott Parker's side remain in seventeenth position with four points heading into the international break.
