And the Englishman acknowledged the decision would have significantly changed the game before underlining his desire for goal-line technology to be introduced.
"My analyst said to me it was over the line," he told reporters.
"These decisions are game-changers, there is no doubt about it and I am sure David will be very aggrieved.
"I have been saying all along that technology must come in and it has cost Everton a crucial goal."
