How did Martinez get away with the foul he did last night and not get a straight red? he’ll probably have the game of his life against us.

The one where he cleanly won the ball against Rashford?

I thought the ref gave Utd a free kick.

No, it was checked by VAR and the decision was a throw in.

I actually initially thought it had broken Rashford's leg!! He was out with a lot of pace and It looked like he had planted most of his studs into Rashford's calf with a lot of force... one of them where it looked better slowed down strangely!

Got there an age before Rashford. Rashford crashed into Martinez.

If Rashford hadn't slowed down at the last moment he would have touched the ball and Martinez would have been sent off. Rashford thought 'I'm having none of that'
