Arsenal keeper Petr Cech furious with referee Mike Dean

Daily Mail  

Furious Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech was given a yellow card by controversial referee Mike Dean in the aftermath of the official awarding a disputed last minute penalty to West Brom that denied the visitors all three points in a 1-1 draw at the Hawthorns on Sunday. Arsenal keeper Petr Cech was furious with referee Mike Dean's decision to award a penalty Cech was angry after Kieran Gibbs crossed the ball with Calum Chambers in close attendance FA rules state the distance between the opponent and the ball must be taken into account Chambers is right next to Gibbs when he fires the ball straight at him in the 89th minute Another angle shows Chambers arms are by his side but Dean gave the Baggies the penalty ‘Every time we meet with refs prior to season and it comes to the point about when the player is close to the ball and has no chance to react it is never a penalty ‘I asked the referee why he changes this decision ‘I was not rude, I just asked the question and it disappoints me even more that he said nothing when I asked him. Cech received a yellow card for his troubles after the match when he spoke with Dean Cech insisted he was not rude and he merely asked Dean to explain why he gave the penalty Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger was furious with Dean after he gave the penalty against his side ‘I’m disappointed by the penalty situation and I expect when I walk to the ref with respect and ask a question I would like if he answers in a normal way, not give me a yellow card and say nothing.’ Gunners boss Arsene Wenger also had every right to be furious with referee Dean after he awarded the last minute penalty against his side according to former Manchester United defender Gary Neville. West Brom grabbed an 89th minute equaliser through a Jay Rodriguez spot-kick on 89 minutes after Dean caused controversy by giving a spot-kick to the home side after former Arsenal man Kieran Gibbs fired the ball from close range onto Calum Chambers arms - which were in front of him.
