Fulham boss Marco Silva hit with FOUR FA charges after red card and Man Utd meltdown

Marco Silva has been hit with four charges after he was sent off during Fulham 3-1 FA Cup quarter-final defeat against Manchester United on Sunday.

The Cottagers' were in cruise control at Old Trafford thanks to Aleksandar Mitrovic's second-half strike, until the visitors lost control and imploded. Following a brief VAR check, Willian was shown a straight red card for handling the ball on the line, giving United the chance to level from the penalty spot.

However, after Chris Kavanagh went over to the VAR screen, Silva was shown red for acting angrily after Willian was dismissed. Mitrovic duly confronted the referee and was sent off for appearing to shove him. It went from bad to worse for Fulham as Bruno Fernandes levelled from the spot, before Marcel Sabitzer immediately put United ahead. Fernandes added his second of the game to book the Red Devils' place in the semi-final.
