Manchester United were involved in a heated FA Cup encounter with Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, with former captain Harry Maguire at the center of a fiery incident.
Maguire found himself in the midst of a furious altercation with Arsenal players after conceding a penalty for Manchester United. The defender was penalized for fouling Kai Havertz, and the decision stood despite the absence of VAR.
Maguire was visibly enraged by the call and expressed his frustration in a scuffle with the Arsenal players, which left Manuel Ugarte and Havertz on the ground. Maguire received a yellow card for his role in the confrontation.
In the end, United were spared further punishment as goalkeeper Altay Bayindir saved Martin Ødegaard’s penalty, leaving the score level at 1-1 after goals from Bruno Fernandes and Gabriel Magalhães.
Maguire’s outburst was not the only incident of the match, as United’s Diogo Dalot was shown a red card following two yellow cards, with the second coming from a reckless challenge on Mikel Merino.
