Arsenal Vs Bolton | Lee awarded penalty for Denilson foul

Description of incident: A Bolton corner dropped to Chung-Yong Lee inside the Arsenal penalty area. He rolled the ball out of his feet, lining up a shot as Denilson slid in from the side bringing him to the ground, with the ref immediately blowing for a penalty.

Date of Game: Wednesday 20th January 2010

Home Team: Arsenal | Away Team: Bolton Wanderers

Referee: Mark Clattenburg | Linesman: Mick McDonough & John Flynn

Decision Type: Penalty | Verdict: Verdict: | Decision Difficulty: 1/5

Affect on Result: N/A | Winner: Arsenal | Loser: Bolton

Players Involved: Neves Denilson (Arsenal) & Chung-Yong Lee (Bolton)

Summary: This was about as easy a penalty decision that you will see and I think that was summed up by the lack of appeal & the look on Denilson's face. He slid in from the left, slightly off ground and swept both of Lee's feet away and was no where near the ball. Definite, nailed on penalty.
