Nottingham Forest felt they were denied a legitimate goal by VAR after Neco Williams' finish was controversially ruled out against Spurs on Saturday.
The full-back had the ball in the net after Sandro Tonali failed to clear the ball in the six-yard box, diving head-first to send it over the line.
Replays showed, however, that the Wales international handled the ball on the line, so the goal was chalked off following a VAR review.
It was the best chance in a game that ended scoreless at the City Ground, though Williams is adamant that the ball did not touch his hand and the goal should have stood.
"It's a goal," he told Sky Sports. "VAR is there when there is a clear and obvious error and for me that is not clear and obvious. I've seen the images and the replays and at not one moment did I think I handballed it. I headed it in between my arms.
