    Not a Utd fan but if they go out here they have been mugged by the Ref.

    Well that's that. We now need 2 with 10 men. All because of a ref. European refs have a lot of questions to answer

    Nani knew he wasn't going to be the only player challenging for that ball, but he still went in with his foot at chest height, studs showing.

    Deserved red card.
    The fact he stayed down and feigned injury made it pretty blatant that he knew he was in the wrong and was just trying to buy time in the hope that the referee would calm down.

    Once it gets to the knockout stage in the champions league there is at least one game where the ref has a shocker that makes decisions that change the tie. Tonight is one of those nights.

    Something will have to change with refereeing. That ref has just cost United millions of pounds.

    Nani's was a yellow at most.
    The decision ruined the game.Just as bad as when RVP was sent off for Arsenal a few years ago.
    United looked comfortable up to that and i'm an Arsenal fan.

    He really didn't. High foot is a yellow card. Compare it to De Jong's in the world cup. Much, much wose and De jong got away with it.

    Nani's was a yellow. Ref got it wrong.

    I'd go so far to say the ref was looking for an excuse. I'm not usually one for conspiracy theories but Spanish teams getting decisions like this in the CL happens too often for my liking.

    De Jong getting away with what should have been a blatant red has nothing to do with this.

    It was yellow minimum- and could be seen as a red, ITV is beyond biased, it was harsh but not a ridiculous decision some are making out. And und should have tightened up. Plenty carry on with 10 men.

    Ferguson doesn't seem to have the same influence with the European refs as with the domestic ones - must be frustrating for the Utd fans not to have a ref constantly giving them decisions.
