The reason behind Bruno Fernandes’ escape from a red card during the Manchester United versus Liverpool match has been revealed.
Reports indicate that Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes narrowly avoided being sent off for a challenge on Dominik Szoboszlai during the FA Cup encounter.
Lee Dixon has explained why he thinks Bruno Fernandes escaped a second yellow card during the Manchester United vs. Liverpool match.
Despite being booked earlier in the game, Fernandes avoided another booking for a tackle on Dominik Szoboszlai in the second half.
Dixon, who provided co-commentary for the game, noted that while Fernandes was fortunate not to receive a yellow card, he didn’t believe it warranted a straight red.
He pointed out that incidents like these happen frequently on the pitch, and while it’s something that VAR might scrutinize, in this case, it didn’t intervene.
Dixon further commented, stating that if a similar incident occurred elsewhere on the pitch and Fernandes hadn’t already been booked, he would have received a yellow card without a doubt.
He emphasized his belief that the referee would have issued a yellow card if such a tackle occurred on the halfway line.
