"Michael Carrick stated, 'We didn't start the game particularly well. We obviously conceded when Leny Yoro gets a forearm smash in the back of the head and they score the first goal. They didn't decide to overturn that decision. That was a big moment in the game.'"
"'But second half, I thought the boys the way they went about it, stayed positive and fought to get something out of it after another shocking, shocking decision to send off Martinez. Two games in a row we've had decisions like that go against us, but that one was one of the worst I've seen.'"
"'You can elbow Leny Yoro for the first goal, leaning arm obviously, you can throw your arm in Martinez's face and then as he's off balance because of that, he's half grappling, he half touches the back of his hair which pulls the bobble.'"
