“What red card is that?” Bruno Fernandes has spoken harshly about his suspension against Tottenham

In the 6th round of the Premier League, Manchester United suffered a heavy 0-3 defeat at home to Tottenham.

One of the turning points in the match was Bruno Fernandes' straight red card late in the first half.

The Portuguese midfielder believes that the referee was too harsh and that his foul didn’t warrant a sending off.

Quote: "I don't see it the way everyone wants to. I didn't attack with studs; it was just my ankle. It's a clear foul, but not a red card. Even Maddison, when he got up, said it was a foul but not a red card.

You can see it wasn’t a red card. If that’s the standard, then many other incidents should be reviewed. I've been on the receiving end of similar challenges, and I don’t remember opponents being sent off.

The contact wasn't that strong. If he wants to give me a yellow because it was a counterattack, I’d accept that. I don't know why VAR didn’t call the referee to check the monitor. For me, it was a poor and controversial decision," Fernandes summed up after the match.

Reminder: This was Bruno's first red card as a Manchester United player. In his previous 241 matches for the Red Devils, the Portuguese midfielder had never been sent off.
