Gary Neville went against Graeme Souness by insisting Marcel Sabitzer did not deserve to be sent off for his studs-up challenge in Manchester United's victory over Leicester City.
Marcus Rashford continued his purple patch with two goals and Jadon Sancho came off the bench to add a third as the Red Devils won 3-0 at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon. The scoreline would imply it was a routine win for the hosts, but there was controversy at the end of the first half when Sabitzer lunged in on Foxes defender Wout Faes.
The Austrian midfielder, who joined United on loan from Bayern Munich in January, made contact with the inside of Faes' leg with his studs. Sabitzer escaped without a booking and VAR officials deemed his challenge was not made with enough force to warrant a red card.
