87'Fernandes scores the penalty down the middle and I'm afraid to say this is a gift from Mike Dean.
Red card
a Southampton
-
86'Penalty and it's a red card for Bednarek!! I really can't understand this decision. Firstly, it's not a penalty, but the VAR didn't show him the correct angle and then Dean has deemed he didn't make an attempt to play the ball. He didn't do anything. A farce all round.
-
84'Mike Dean is going to have a look at this.
-
84'It looks a dive to me and it shouldn't be a penalty.
-
83'Penalty to Man Utd!!! Mike Dean says Bednarek brings down Martial, but I think Martial is already going down. I think Dean should go and see this.

82'Shots: 20-3, on target: 11-1.
-
81'Greenwood shoots and his effort is simple for McCarthy.
