Speaking during the game, Dion Dublin told BBC Sport Final Score that the penalty was "a weak penalty decision."
He said: “I would say it was a weak penalty decision, without a doubt, Danny’s made the best of it, without a doubt.
“There is contact - enough to make him go down? Possibly not. But he’s made the referee make a decision," added the former England striker, now equally known for his presenting duties on 'Homes Under The Hammer.'
This season has seen Englishman Rose back in the Tottenham the starting 11 having previously lost his place at left back to Wales international Ben Davies.
