Arsenal skipper Cesc livid over late penalty denial at Wigan

Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas was furious after being denied a final minute penalty in their draw with Wigan Athletic.

Samir Nasri's free-kick clearly hit Wigan midfielder James McArthur's hands.

And Gunners skipper Fabregas fumed: "What's the difference between this handball and my one versus Spurs? Referees don't want us to complain about them but they make life difficult for themselves."

Fabregas was penalised for the same offence at home to Spurs in November, handing them a penalty equaliser in Gunners' 3-2 defeat.

The Spaniard, suspended for last night's game, added: "Is it a rule or just what they feel?"
