Just watched 25 minutes of the highlights on Sky.
No Problem with the RC for Rashford. It was a stupid thing to do even though he was provoked.
However, I thought Bardsley was rather fortunate to get away with a YC. It looked to me like he kicked Rashford apart from the initial challenge.
Moss and the AR also missed a handball in the last few minutes just outside the area when Mee, who was on the ground, pulled the ball back with his hand to stop Lukaku. I did wonder about DOGSO but can't recall where the other defenders were.
Still, Mourinho said it was a good performance by Moss and the ARs if that means anything.

Yes, it means Man Utd won.

And would have won regardless but still doesn’t excuse the poor decisions. If rashford is dismissed then surely bardsley has to go as well. As with the handball if it was someone like Taylor or Oliver then there was a better chance it might have been seen but Moss was so far from play he had no chance really

I also thought Beardsley was incredibly lucky! His initial kick is arguably more violent than the headbut

Still struggling now to suss out how only one was dismissed
A very wise guy in my early refereeing days said either both go or neither

Well, he wasn’t very wise with that philosophy. Every incident must be judged individually and in IMO Moss only got half of this one right
