Lisandro Martinez had a superb 45 minutes of football for Manchester United in last night's 1-0 Europa League defeat to Real Sociedad, despite the controversial penalty decision.
The main talking point from Thursday night's match came in the 57th minute, when Sociedad were awarded a penalty due to a handball decision against Martinez. The defender, who was brought on at half-time by Erik ten Hag, flung himself at a David Silva shot on the edge of the box as the ball ricocheted off his knee and onto his arm.
There was nothing intentional in the Argentine's actions that saw the ball cannon off his arm, five yards away from Silva, yet the initial decision was not overturned.
