Never, ever a penalty.

They just showed it again on NBCSN; not a penalty for me either.

It was a soft penalty, no doubt, but there was contact on Bruno, so the ref had to give it by the letter of the law.

Bruno jumped into the defender and it was outside the box!

ManUnitedCanuck · Jul 9, 2020

Couple of our players have stopped there runs when they could have got to the ball, wonder if fatigue is coming into it with the same players starting every match

Someone needs to tell gary he can be heard

Rightnr · Jul 9, 2020

Why are we late to every ball? Feels as if you're playing FIFA and the computer is not letting you win the ball back.

I guess because Bruno steps on his ankle and dives. Come on mate, this one is hard to argue against, but who cares feck Villa.

Yea. Saw the stepping on ankle. On first view it looked like defender following through on his movement and caught Bruno midway through his turn.

It didn't. He was probably only making sure it was in the box.

They just don't over rule the refs if they've already given it.

VAR overturned a penalty given by the same ref for a "foul" on the same player a couple of weeks ago...

ivaldo · Jul 9, 2020

Will Neville piss off. It's a pen.

You'd be raging at Maguire if he got fouled by an opponent and then penalised for it?

He didn't get fouled though. He commited to the tackle and didn't get the ball.

Hey man, not the time for morals. 1-0

Him and John are like a father and son doing a charity fun run out there.

Apparently we equaled the record for the number of pens in a season by 13. The other 2 were Leicester in 2016 and Palace in 2005.

Rival fans gonna go wild.

Jazz · Jul 9, 2020

If we could only get a second goal......

Tony247 · Jul 9, 2020

good play

Tincanalley · Jul 9, 2020

Good try António

ThinkTank@Cafe · Jul 9, 2020

predictable

The Mitcher · Jul 9, 2020

I think we all get it was dubious but Sky Sports just won't stop bringing it up.

MyOnlySolskjaer · Jul 9, 2020

Great tackle from Martial in the build up.

Munkehboi · Jul 9, 2020

Dont think it was a pen but Bruno would have scored the free kick anyway so makes no difference :lol:

Camy89 · Jul 9, 2020

Decent effort Martial. Needed a bit of loft and bend but like the counter-attacking play lads, c'mon.

Think you just aren’t very good at FIFA mate

Matic has been poor

I wonder if Liverpool penalties are repeated so much as this one.

Was thinking the same. Even commentator on SK is annoyed how many times they showed it.

Love that penalty stat. Shows we have clever attackers.

Wonder how much Ole has influenced Bruno type penalty decision creations!

JinnerJamie · Jul 9, 2020

Feck it

Villa go down, we get top 4 and take Grealish off their hands while we're at it.

fps · Jul 9, 2020

Villa can’t play better than that. United weathered the storm and there are more goals in this.

The penalty should not have been given though.

Jazz · Jul 9, 2020

That was a chance for Martial..

redshaw · Jul 9, 2020

Can see the argument either way for the pen

Jim Beglin saying he never got tackled though, no the villa player slid in, without the player sliding in Bruno is staying up to complete the turn.

Teja · Jul 9, 2020

Need some more energy in that midfield I think. I'd rather see McTominay or Fred over Matic today - looking leggy trying to keep up with the speed of the game.

Just the two requirements :lol:

With all the respect in the world bud, open your other eye.

Of course. But all but 2 were legitimate pens and those two make up for Martial v Palace and Fred v City.

Yeah. Not sure why people are struggling with this one. The defender is clumsy as feck and ends up tackling Bruno from behind accidentally.

He's stopped short and Bruno has gone into him... Not the other way around.

and yet he was essential to our build up for the penalty

The Brown Bull · Jul 9, 2020

That was no pen. Never. Free out if anything.
Would be livid if awarded against us.

48 hours · Jul 9, 2020

Nice effort by Greenwood

ha_rooney · Jul 9, 2020

Decent save

Canagel · Jul 9, 2020

Pogba exquisite pass

tyunited · Jul 9, 2020

I can see what Bruno was trying to do... The 360 but harsh take it all day long as we have been poor.
