Leicester City legend Gary Lineker has disagreed with the decision made by referee Jonas Eriksson on Wednesday night.
Marc Albrighton lunged at Antoine Griezmann just outside the penalty box in the 27th minute of last night's Champions League quarter-final first leg which the Foxes lost 1-0 to Atletico Madrid.
Lineker Tweeted that he felt it was 'extraordinary' the Swedish match official could not see, from five yards away, that Albrighton had made contact outside the area.
Stupid challenge, but outside the box. Ref 5 yards away. Extraordinary.

Griezmann dusted himself off to score the ensuing penalty, sending Kasper Schmeichel the wrong way, as Atleti won narrowly at the Vicente Calderon Stadium.
