EPL: This Man Utd player blamed for 1-1 draw vs Chelsea
Former Manchester United defender, Gary Neville, has reacted to the club’s recent match vs Chelsea on Saturday at Stamford Bridge.
Neville in his statement described Scott McTominay’s foul on Armando Broja as “terrible” and “clumsy”.
McTominay, who came in as a substitute in the second half gave away a late penalty as the Red Devils were held to a 1-1 draw by Chelsea.
Chelsea midfielder Jorginho stepped up and converted from the spot to give the Blues the lead.
But Casemiro would come to Man Utd’s rescue as he scored an equalizer with a late header.
“It’s clumsy from McTominay. There’s no doubt that at the end [Armando Broja] throws himself to the ground but there is initial contact.
“It’s that left arm, then it’s the right arm. I think that’s the problem for McTominay. He may feel like he’s not brought Broja down but optically it looks terrible.
“He looked like he was hugging him and pulling him to the ground. There’s a way to stop people going across you as soon as you put your arm or two arms on someone you’re in trouble,” Neville told Sky Sports.
