Leeds boss Daniel Farke has admitted he's 'pretty annoyed' after the Whites had a goal ruled out against Norwich in the first leg of their play-off tie on Sunday.
Junior Firpo thought he'd broken the deadlock after 30 minutes, only for his effort to be ruled out by referee Josh Smith.
A flag was raised for offside against Georginio Rutter, with TV replays suggesting the right decision had been made.
Yet Farke has now hit out at Sky and revealed he's still 'pretty annoyed' by the decision to disallow the strike.

“I’m still pretty annoyed with the offside situation,” he said.
“Someone told me that Sky showed a picture they said was proof it was offside.
"I recommend everyone have a look on the scouting feed, where you have a proper line. It was not offside.
“We also have the rule that in doubt you go in favour of the offensive team, it feels like this rule is not in place any more.
“Because we are playing at the top level small details make a difference. It changes the whole picture here.
“Everyone speaks about Wembley, the £100million game, and at this level all the decisions have to be spot on.
“I expect myself to be spot on in these games with my decisions and my players as well.
"So, sorry, if you want to be in charge of such a game you have to do the same as well.”
VAR will be used at Wembley but is currently not used in other Championship matches.
And Farke says Leeds would already be promoted to the Premier League if the technology was in place.
“I have 12 apologising letters at home already during the season with offside goals and penalties not given,” Farke added.
“If we would have used VAR during this season we wouldn’t be in the play-offs – we would have been promoted automatically.”
Norwich boss David Wagner could have been forgiven for feeling irked by his side's failure to win at Carrow Road.
But while his team failed to make the most of home advantage, he said he was content with the result.
“I’m absolutely fine with the performance and the shift the players put in,” he said.

“I’m absolutely fine with what I have seen, I have a positive mindset following the draw.
"All cards are still on the table and on Thursday we will go again.
“Everybody would love to have won the game but I know that play-off semi-finals are not won in the first game.
"We have our idea, we know what to do and hopefully we will execute it on Thursday night.”
Star man Josh Sargent had to be substituted towards the end of the match.

Yet Wagner is hopeful the American will be available for the second leg at Elland Road.
“He is a tough guy and I hope and I think he will be,” he said.
