Ryan Alebiosu discusses controversial penalty in Blackburn's draw against Wolves

Blackburn had taken a 2-1 lead, but a late penalty was awarded to Wolves after the ball struck Alebiosu's arm. Replays suggested the handball occurred outside the box, and there is no VAR in the EFL. Raul Jimenez converted the penalty for Wolves.

Alebiosu, 24, played the full 90 minutes and stated, "We’re frustrated. The boys have done everything to get the three points. The ball has been played, and I thought I was outside the box.

Obviously the decision has gone against us." Blackburn coach Tony Mowbray also believed the incident was outside the box. Despite the disappointment, Alebiosu praised his teammates' effort and believes Blackburn can perform well in the league if they maintain this level of play.

Blackburn Rovers will next face Middlesbrough at Ewood Park.
