Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl was furious that his team were not awarded a penalty in their 1-0 loss to Manchester United on Saturday afternoon.
After Erik ten Hag's men took the lead mid-way through the second half, the ball seemed to strike Scott McTominay on the arm inside his own area.
Southampton were pushing for an equaliser and when the incident happened they were extremely vocal in their views that it should be a penalty.

Referee Andrew Madley waved play on and Peter Banks saw nothing wrong as he assessed the incident at Stockley Park.
Following his team's defeat, Hasenhuttl showed his dissatisfaction with the officiating, and believed that there were multiple offences in that single play.
"It was not one handball – it was three times," he told BBC Sports. "When this isn’t handball, what should I say?"

That was not the only thing that frustrated the Saints manager in this encounter, however.
New signing Casemiro came off the bench for Ten Hag's side late in the game to make his debut.
He made the move to Old Trafford from Real Madrid for £60 million last week and was unveiled before United's 2-1 win against Liverpool on Monday.
He is not the only expensive signing in the United squad, and whilst supporters hope that the club begin to start spending that money more wisely, Hasenhuttl seemed relatively bitter about the difference in situation between the two clubs.
"We've spent on five players the amount that Man Utd has spent on one player," the Southampton manager ranted. "That's the way we have to go. I didn't see much difference between the two teams today.

"We’ll definitely see some moves, in or out, in the next few days."
He believed that his team deserved more from the fixture. After United dominance for a good portion of the game, Southampton were in control in the latter stages of the match.
“It doesn’t feel good because we deserved more today. I think we had more chances and more shots on goal.

"In the end we gave them one or two situations in the second half and they scored one beautiful goal. We didn’t manage to score and that was the difference today.
"Over the whole 90 minutes we tried really hard to put them under pressure. In the second half we tried a lot.
"Sometimes football's like this – the ball doesn't want to go in the back of the net. Today was one of those days."
