Dundalk were desperately unlucky to leave the Aviva Stadium having lost 2-0 to their Champions League qualifying opponents Legia Warsaw.
Dundalk put in a spirited display but were undone thanks to a penalty and a goal scored with the last kick of the game, but after the final whistle was blown manager Stephen Kenny told RTÉ exactly how he felt.
Kenny was adamant that a penalty should not have been given, and claimed that the decision ruined the game.

There was much debate on social media as well as in the RTÉ studio as to whether or not it was a penalty, watch the footage and judge for yourself.

Dundalk now face an uphill battle to qualify for the Champions League group stages and will travel to Poland next week looking to overturn tonight's result.
