Probably the worst sending-off decision by a so-called 'professional', that I've seen for a long time. And by the way, the 'better' team won, there were only 2 teams playing, not 3 or more !! Get your grammar sorted out !!    ;)

Could be classed as dangerous play which is red? Brave ref to give it there!

Only saw highlights and it looked 50/50 to me.

Bad losers though. No dignity at all - apart from maybe Ferdinand and we must have taught him that at Leeds  ;)

Well he did eventually shake hands withe the officials.

Maybe he was embarrassed by his applause in the refs face?

The reason I dislike that club so much is due to the players being the image of their horrible manager.

1) Absolutely wrong decision.
2) The full team won, otherwise who knows?

the red card was the right decision, the referee gives his judgement on what he sees, he doesnt get the benefit of slow motion from 8 different camera angles, so the decision was his honest opinion and nobodies opinion is wrong.
The best team did win as they scored more goals, the pressure was mounting before the sending off it's not Joses or the referees fault Man u collapsed because one player got sent off.

How can it bee the worst decision when people differ between a yellow or a red?

Nani's foot was up long before the defender ran straight into it - it's a little like the bit in Blackadder where he tells Baldrink he is too tired to punch him, and requests he runs into his fist quite fast. I think the defender did a brilliant job of getting booted.

Remember, if this is dangerous play, overhead kicks are all red card offences and should be stopped.

1. The sending off I was surprised, but we have had this ref before and I knew what to expect. He sen Mario against Kiev in the Europa cup, for a less dangerous tackle. The own goal shouldn,t have been allowed, Van Persie was offside when he received the ball. The sending off over saw the main change in the game, which was the substitution that saw Modrich enter the game. I have no Idea of what goes on in the head of Mourinho whether it be praise for a defeated United or eye gauging the opponents trainer. Best team did win. Oh and I thought Ferguson and Ferdinand should have shown a little more class in defeat.
