Fernandes Furious Over Penalty Decisions In Man Utd Draw
Fernandes Furious Over Penalty Decisions In Man Utd Draw

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has criticised VAR after his side were denied a penalty in their 2-2 draw with Bournemouth. The incident occurred when Amad was pushed in the area, but referee Stuart Attwell waved play on, and VAR Craig Pawson upheld the decision. Moments later, Bournemouth equalised.

United regained the lead before Harry Maguire was sent off for a similar challenge on Evanilson, which was deemed a penalty. Fernandes expressed his frustration, stating that either both incidents were penalties or neither was. He questioned why VAR did not intervene in the Amad incident.

The draw leaves United four points ahead of Aston Villa, who have a game in hand. Fernandes emphasised the inconsistency in officiating, particularly for smaller players like Amad.
