Arsenal scored third goal in Leicester City win after 'blatant handball' missed as Foxes manager Craig Shakespeare says he is 'disappointed' by decision
- Aaron Ramsey made it 3-3 after a corner, before Arsenal scored the winner
- However Mesut Ozil won the corner after controlling the ball with his arm
- Leicester manager Craig Shakespeare said he was frustrated at the officials
Arsenal's third goal in their comeback win over Leicester City should not have stood after a 'blatant handball' was missed in the build-up, says Jamie Carragher.
The Gunners came from behind twice to beat Leicester 4-3 in the Premier League's 2017-18 season opener, with Aaron Ramsey making it 3-3 after a corner, before Olivier Giroud scored the winner.
However Mesut Ozil won the corner after controlling the ball with his arm in the build-up, and was unpenalised despite referee Mike Dean having a clear view of the incident.

Jamie Carragher said Mike Dean should have seen it having first given him benefit of the doubt
An unimpressed Carragher said on Sky Sports: ‘Unfortunately we are talking about referees at the start of the season again. Mesut Ozil does a blatant handball.
'In commentary, I gave Mike Dean the benefit of the doubt, I thought he couldn’t see it, but he has to get that decision right, and that is where the corner comes from.’
Leicester manager Craig Shakespeare said afterwards he was frustrated by the officials missing the handball, but was equally unhappy with his team's inability to defend properly from the subsequent set piece.
He also said they would try and take the positives from scoring three times at the Emirates Stadium, from their only efforts on target.

Shakespeare: ‘If you look at the third goal, I am a bit disappointed with the handball leading up to it, but you have to defend the corner better.
'You've always got to look for some positives, there won't be too many as it is a results business.
'It is the first game, so we are not going to be too downhearted. You can look at it and say we have come away with a defeat but we have to be positive as it is the first game.'
