Both sides had converted penalties in 1-1 draw
Mikel Arteta described himself as “incredibly fuming” after Arsenal were denied a penalty that might have given them a lead to take from the first leg of their Champions League semi-final against Atlético Madrid.
With the score at 1-1 in the 78th minute, the Dutch referee Danny Makkelie pointed to the spot after the Atlético defender David Hancko caught Eberechi Eze, who was on as a substitute for Arsenal, with a late tackle.
