It appeared Scotland should have been awarded a spot-kick in the second half when Stuart Armstrong was felled in the box by Willie Orban.A VAR check was carried out but the referee was not ordered to review the call on the pitchside monitor.
The decision left Clarke baffled with the national team boss questioning why the Argentinian official was in charge of the match as he demanded an explanation for the decision."Somebody has to explain to me why that is not a penalty because otherwise, I'm thinking there is something wrong."Asked whether he had held any conversation with the referee over the denied penalty appeal, he added: "What is the point?

"We all suffer together, we are sad together. We are as sad as the supporters are because at the end of the day we are all supporters, we want to do well for our country.Further, Clarke added: "The first thing to say is I hope the lad who is injured is okay because it looked pretty bad."Readers’ comments: You are personally liable for the content of any comments you upload to this website, so please act responsibly.
