Watch Charlie Adam 'stamp' on Alexis Sanchez

Did Stoke midfielder Charlie Adam 'stamp' on Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez?

Adam appeared to glance down and then stand on Sanchez's leg in the build-up to Arsenal's third goal in the their 3-1 win at the Emirates on Saturday.

Referee Lee Mason played advantage and did not punish Adam for the challenge.

Earlier in the game, Granit Xhaka gave away a penalty when he caught Joe Allen with an elbow to the face.

Xhaka also went unpunished, although Adam did convert the spot-kick to put the Potters ahead in the 23rd minute.

Should Xhaka have seen red for this challenge on Allen?

Arsenal replied with goals either side of half-time from Theo Walcott and Mesut Ozil before substitute Alex Iwobi made sure of the points late in the game.

The win extended Arsenal's unbeaten run in the league to 14 matches, ahead of a trip to Everton on Tuesday evening.
