Officers in Stockley Park checked to see whether or not the ball went out of play within the build-up, then if Joelinton had fouled Gabriel and eventually if the goalscorer was offside.
However they determined there was nothing fallacious and Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta slammed the choice as a “shame”.
Former Premier League referee Gallagher and Gunners legend Ian Wright clashed when debating the controversy.
They first mentioned if the ball went out of play with the retired ref saying that they had been right to guage the ball as in-play.
He defined: “The entire of the ball must be over the entire of the road.
“You may take a look at it from that angle and it’s not possible to inform.
“They will’t make certain that half that ball is overhanging that line, so due to this fact, there isn’t a proof to counsel the ball is out of play.”
Wright argued: “The angles we’re seeing, the ball seems to be out of play.

“That’s certainly what we must be judging it on. It’s not like we are able to’t say conclusively.
“What we are able to see, from the bare eye, we haven’t bought another strategy to show that circumference is breaking the road, then certainly we should always give that ball as out of play.”
The pair then mentioned Joelinton’s doable foul on Gabriel.
Gallagher believes the fallacious determination was made and that the purpose ought to’ve been chalked off due to the push.
He mentioned: “The on-field determination was no foul. I believe in the event you take a look at the three elements of this, two are inconclusive and might’t be checked.
“I believe that is the simplest one of many lot. I believe it’s a foul.”
Wright fumed: “We have now two referees in there they usually don’t see that as a foul. How can they not see that as a foul?”
“Individuals saying it’s bitter grapes from me, to a sure extent it’s.
“There are two fingers on his again there. You take a look at Joelinton, he’s forcing him within the again. Gabriel most likely will get a head on that ball if he isn’t impeded.”
Wright additionally raged over the choice to not ship off Newcastle’s Bruno Guimaraes following his forearm smash into Jorginho.
