Reading captain Graeme Murty says the clash with Arsenal's Alexander Hleb on Saturday is in danger of "being blown out of proportion".
The Arsenal midfielder has admitted a charge of violent conduct following the incident at the Emirates Stadium.
Murty told BBC Radio Berkshire he felt referee Peter Walton handled the situation well at the time.
He said: "He prevented me from taking the law into my own hands and kept 11 men on the pitch."
Murty added: "He said 'I'm sorry Murts. I missed it. I apologise. You have a game to play.' That got me back.
"These things happen in football, I've got better things to be thinking about than that."
