'Referee Has To Watch It 13 Times...', Arsenal Boss Arteta Fumes At Overturned Penalty In Atletico Draw
UEFA Champions League: Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said that decision to scrub off the penalty award for Eberechi Eze "changed the course of the game" after the Gunners were pegged back to draw 1-1 at Atletico Madrid in the first -lef of the UEFA Champions League semfinal.
Viktor Gyokeres' first-half penalty gave Arsenal the lead just before half-time, but after a period of pressure after the restart, Julian Alverez also netted from 12 yards to level things up.
A third spot-kick was awarded with 13 minutes to play when Ebere Eze was brought down inside the box but a VAR intervention saw the decision overturned, denying gunners the opportunity to cap a fine display with a victory before the sides meet again in N5 in six days’ time.
