Former England strikers Alan Shearer and Ian Wright both think Casemiro was harshly sent off during Crystal Palace’s 2-1 defeat to Manchester United on Saturday at Old Trafford.
Goals from Bruno Fernandes (penalty) and Marcus Rashford gave United a 2-0 lead shortly after the hour mark but just eight minutes after Rashford finished off a well-worked team goal, star midfielder Casemiro was shown a straight red card following a melee between both sets of players.
However, Casemiro’s dismissal was a decision that both Shearer and Wright disagreed with, believing that United midfielder Fred and Palace forward Jordan Ayew were both more at fault than the Brazilian was.
