Bournemouth boss Gary O'Neil demands an APOLOGY from the referee as he rages at 'scandalous' decision to award Brentford a penalty - as he claims Ivan Toney fouled Marcos Senesi instead

Bournemouth boss Gary O'Neil raged at a penalty decision awarded to Brentford on Saturday evening that kickstarted his side's latest defeat labelling it 'scandalous'.

Ivan Toney was hauled down inside the box by Marcos Senesi, with Jared Gillet immediately pointing to the spot - with Toney duly dispatching the effort from 12 yards.

Mathias Jensen made it 2-0 in the second half to put the game beyond the visitors.

There appeared to be little debate about the legitimacy of the spot kick being awarded, but O'Neil after the game pointed to Toney having a grab of the defender's arm as being reason for it to be overturned by the video assistant referee.
