ARSENAL fans raged after a refereeing error went against them in their Champions League defeat to Bayern Munich.
The Gunners were becoming increasingly frustrated in the latter stages of their quarter-final second leg in Germany as Bayern led 1-0 on the night and 3-2 on aggregate.

Odegaard claimed it was the second incorrect decision as he voiced his frustration
And captain Martin Odegaard was left even more incensed when Arsenal were not given a corner.
Odegaard saw his shot deflect off Eric Dier before it was tipped behind by keeper Manuel Neuer.
Yet referee Danny Makkelie pointed for a goal kick as the Gunners skipper was left in disbelief.
He remonstrated with the assistant referee, throwing his hands above his head.
The Norwegian could also be seen saying: “That’s two times.”
Reacting to the decision, one fan said: “Rigged 😭.”
Another added: “Neuer clearly touched the ball on Odegaard’s shot. Why is that not a corner?”
A third replied: “That corner decision is woeful, two very obvious deflections.
“Odegaard’s reaction was even that of someone who wasn’t disappointed cos he’d won a corner.”
While a fourth responded: “Bayern rigged the game.”
There is no evidence to suggest the game was rigged.
The full-time whistle blew minutes after the decision was made, eliminating Arsenal from the Champions League.
They suffered their second loss in four days after falling to Aston Villa 2-0 at home in the Premier League on Sunday.
Now, Mikel Arteta’s team needs to pick themselves up in order to travel to Wolves on Saturday night.
With six games left, Arsenal is two points behind champion Manchester City after the loss to Villa.
