Manchester United fans are incensed after Barcelona attacker Raphinha appeared to grab the throat of Bruno Fernandes during a mass melee in Thursday’s Europa League tie.
Despite protesting it wasn’t intentional, Fernandes was shown a yellow card for booting the ball into Frenkie de Jong after the midfielder was felled after jostling with Aaron Wan-Bissaka midway through the second half.
It caused a shoving match between both sets of players with tempers high. Fernandes and Raphinha are good friends having played together at Sporting Lisbon and the former Leeds man tried to pull United’s de facto captain away from the scene.
