The Egypt midfielder palmed the ball past Tim Krul just before half-time but justice was done when the goal was ruled out.

Bruce acknowledged the decision was right but said that Elmohamady was no cheat. “It’s a reaction, I’m not sure it’s cheating. He knows he can’t head it because it’s too high for him.

“But I have to say the officials, they got it right - which I was pleased about because even in the situation that we’re in, we don’t want to be seeing goals that are not worthy of being a goal.

“Fair play to the officials, the right decision was made.”
