"In the manner that we gave the penalty, very disappointed. In the Premier League, it's not a penalty, but here I have to accept that with the rules and how consistent they've been... I accept that this is a handball."
"What I am incredibly fuming with, is how the penalty on Ebs gets overturned in the manner that it happened, when it's not a clear and obvious error this changes the course of the game."
"At this level, I'm sorry, but this cannot happen."

Arteta accepted the handball ruling but was furious about the overturned penalty on Eze, stating it was not a clear and obvious error and that such decisions should not happen at this level, as they can significantly impact the game's outcome.
