The central referee was found guilty of the defeat of Manchester United against Copenhagen

United started the match well and the Premier League side led 2-0 in the 28th minute (Hoylung double).

However, the red card that Rashford received (in the 42nd minute) came, and from there the whole course of the match changed.

The hosts tied the score at 2, United took the lead again after a penalty shot by Bruno Fernandes (69′), but the Danes were able to score twice more and win the match (4-3).

At the end of the game, Erik ten Hag found the main culprit of his team’s defeat: center Donatas Rumsas from Lithuania.

“We are very disappointed because we played very well, had a great start to the game and had the best minutes of the season.

We controlled the game and the red card changed everything. It’s a game of mistakes. I wouldn’t say we did everything right, but there are a lot of positives. Even with 10 people, I dictated the game. I played very well.

It was a very difficult decision. He went after the ball and the referee took a long time to give him a red card.

When you stop the game like that, it looks worse… I’m very disappointed with this decision. The game has never been like this. It has nothing to do with football.

I’ll admit bad decisions are made, but when you make those tough decisions, you’re in control of the game. Four penalties against us in four matches and two or three are very questionable” – Erik ten Haagquoted by Sky Sports.
