Critchley was furious with the 78th minute spot kick award which he claimed cost his side the chance to go after a late leveller.
Copenhagen boss Jacob Neestrup has fired back at Hearts counterpart Neil Critchley’s penalty moan - branding it “ridiculous” and insisting his side would have won Thursday’s Euro tie regardless.
“To be honest, as I said to the Danish journalists, I think it's ridiculous to talk about that penalty because it was not decisive for the game. As the game went on, we would have won that game nine out of 10 times anyway.”
