Arsenal fans have taken to social media to express their anger and rage following penalty drama in their 1-1 draw with Everton on Saturday.
The Gunners went ahead at Goodison Park through Leandro Trossard, with the Belgium star finding the net after some good work from Raheem Sterling.
However, controversy broke out in the second half with Everton awarded a penalty following a foul from Myles Lewis-Skelly on Jack Harrison.
Following a lengthy VAR review the spot-kick was given, with Iliman Ndiaye then converting to draw Everton level.

Arsenal threw bodies forward as they chased a winner that would have seen them close the gap on Liverpool to nine points at the top of the table.
In the end, however, Mikel Arteta's side were forced to settle for a draw - with Ndiaye's penalty enough for the home side to earn a draw.
And Arsenal fans have now flocked to social media to express their dismay, with many feeling Lewis-Skelly was unfortunate to be penalised after colliding with Harrison inside the box.
"If you think this is a penalty, you’re so wrong," were the words of one fan.
A second said: "They’re now giving penalties for Arsenal players being pulled down in their own box. I’m done with this s**t."
Another opined: "Disgraceful decision, once again. Only against Arsenal I swear..."

A fourth even alleged there was an 'agenda' against Arsenal, saying: "That is never a penalty. This is ridiculous. We are seeing decisions going against us almost every game and yet we aren’t supposed to talk about poor refereeing and it’s agenda."
A fifth said: "How on earth can this a penalty, looks like we’ve forgotten that football is contact sports."
And a sixth remarked: "Not a penalty but as it’s against Arsenal it’s a penalty. Typical. Should be used to it by now."
