Oran Kearney was left to question two key refereeing decisions as his Coleraine side fell to a 2-0 defeat at Linfield.
After a bright start to the game the Bannsiders found themselves a goal down on 14 minutes after Chris Shields had put the hosts in front from the penalty spot.
Referee Shane Andrews awarded the penalty after his assistant had flagged for a handball against Coleraine defender Dean Jarvis.
