Aston Villa were denied victory over Juventus in the Champions League as Morgan Rogers' stoppage-time goal was ruled out.
Rogers' smart finish was disallowed when the video assistant referee deemed Diego Carlos to have fouled goalkeeper Michele di Gregorio in the air.
The disappointment means Villa's winless run has reached seven matches.
Unai Emery's side ended a four-game losing run with a draw against Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Saturday, but they have not tasted victory since a 2-0 win over Bologna five weeks ago.
Villa enjoyed the better of the chances against Juventus but could not find a goal against the team who boast the best defensive record in Serie A.
Spaniard Emery believed Rogers' disallowed goal would have been awarded in domestic competition.
"In England the interpretation is different," he said. "The English referees, when actions like that, the interpretation is a clear no foul, but in Europe that interpretation is different.
"When the action happened, I was thinking here in Europe it’s a foul. In England, not."
Emery brought on super-sub Jhon Duran after 77 minutes in the hope he could make a difference.
Duran had scored in each of his two home Champions League appearances for Villa this season, but the Colombian this time failed to make such an impact from the bench.
Juventus had their moments, with Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez producing a superb save when he palmed away Francisco Conceicao's shot at the near post. The Portuguese winger's low effort had been centimetres from fully crossing the line.
Ultimately it was a safety-first performance from the home side, who have gone seven games without a win for the first time under Emery.
The Villans sit ninth in the Champions League table while Juventus are 19th and without a win in their last three games in Europe.
