Mikel Arteta's team faced a controversial UEFA penalty decision against Inter, with Martin Keown criticizing its impact on the integrity of the game.
He expressed dissatisfaction with the UEFA rule, stating, "Is the ball in an unnatural position? It certainly isn't; decisions like this are ruining our game."
Keown noted the difference in penalty adjudication between UEFA and the Premier League, highlighting that the proximity of the player should matter in such scenarios.
Despite the uproar from English pundits, Keown acknowledged that the rule is in line with UEFA's standards but argued that it makes the game less fair.
