"We are very upset because of this result," Caparros told reporters.
"I don’t know why things like this always happens against Ireland," the Armenia manager said, referencing another controversial call that went against them when they played Ireland at the Aviva Stadium in 2011.
On that occasion, Armenia had goalkeeper Roman Berezovsky sent off for handling the ball outside of the penalty area. Yet, replays showed that the ball did not hit his hand.
Ireland went on to win the game 2-1 and secure a place in the Euro 2012 playoffs. The Boys in Green qualified for the tournament, where they lost every game.
"The same as 2011 here," Caparros said.
"As a man responsible for Armenian history, I know what happened before. Roman Berezovsky is now our goalkeeping coach... When it happens twice, you have to think about it.
"It was clear there was no corner before leading to the penalty. The referee didn’t look at the repeat of the corner he only looked at the penalty."
