'Zero difference!' - Arsenal fans fume at what Virgil van Dijk did to Nicolas Pepe at Anfield

The fallout from Arsenal's 3-1 loss at the hands of Liverpool on Saturday evening continues.

Whilst the hosts were well worth the win, many can argue that the game turned early in the second half when Mohamed Salah earned a penalty after being pulled back by David Luiz.

With the Gunners trailing by a single goal at the time, it certainly had a massive impact on the rest of the game.

Salah made no mistake from 12 yards and all of a sudden Unai Emery's gameplan - which had been working up until Joel Matip's header - had been undone.

And there were hardly any complaints from the Arsenal squad when referee Anthony Taylor pointed to the spot.

But should the Gunners have been awarded a penalty of their own in the first-half?

Well, they certainly had a strong case.

Virgil van Dijk appeared to pull the shirt of Nicolas Pepe - similar to the incident which saw Luiz get penalised for his tug on Salah.

One eagle-eyed Arsenal supporter noticed the incident and uploaded the clip to Twitter.

As expected this has garnered a strong response from fans on the social media platform.

Take a look at what's been said...
