Former Sunderland midfielder Andy Reid was heavily critical of Newcastle's Ayoze Perez for his protests after being denied a late penalty in their Carabo Cup defeat to Nottingham Forest.
The Magpies exited the cup at the second round stage to the Championship side for a second successive season, losing 3-1 at the City Ground as many of Rafael Benitez's first team players failed to perform.
Despite losing the game, Perez thought he should've had a penalty in added time with the score at 2-1, as the Spaniard fervently remonstrated with the officials both during and after the game, although Reid suggested he should've shown that same passion in his performance.
