Manchester United interim manager, Michael Carrick, has given his verdict on defender, Lisandro Martinez’s red card against Leeds United in the Premier League on Monday night.

Carrick insisted that the red card was one of the worst refereeing decisions he had seen.

Recall that Martinez saw red after VAR noticed a momentary hair pull on Leeds striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin in Man Utd’s 2-1 defeat at Old Trafford.

The Argentina international now faces a three-match ban as a result of the red card.

Speaking to Sky Sports after the game, Carrick gave his verdict on the red card, saying, “It’s not a pull, it’s not a tug, it’s not aggressive, he touches it and gets sent off. Worst of all was that he was sent to overturn it as a clear error. It’s shocking.

“That’s two games in a row we’ve had those decisions go against us, but that one was one of the worst I’ve seen.”
