Referee Ovidiu Hategan may have killed Northern Ireland's hopes of making it to the 2018 World Cup, as the Romanian ref awarded Switzerland a penalty kick due to a supposed handball by Corry Evans.
Replays showed that the ball hit Evans' back, but the ref saw something out of line and granted the Swiss the controversial call.

Of course, fans couldn not wait to claim justice for the defender, even though the Green and White Army will have to score at least two goals if they want to make the trip to Russia next year.
Although Switzerland have been the better team, it's annoying they're only ahead through a huge refereeing error. That's one of the worst penalty decisions I've ever seen #NIRSWI
