Rio Ferdinand and Paul Scholes disagree with Peter Walton's Southampton penalty claim vs Manchester United

Manchester United legends Rio Ferdinand and Paul Scholes believe Scott McTominay should've been penalised for a handball in the penalty area during their win over Southampton.

Bruno Fernandes ' second-half volley was enough to hand United their second win in a week, following on from their inspired performance against Liverpool. Erik ten Hag's side came close to opening the scoring in the first half but three chances were thwarted by last-ditch defending from the Saints to keep the score level.

After the Reds skipper netted his first goal of the season, the hosts came out looking to find the equaliser. They had a penalty shout after a coming-together between Che Adams and McTominay saw the ball handled in the United box.
