Nani Receives Red

Filed Under Premiership 

Nani was sent off on 29 minutes by referee Peter Walton in a 1-1 draw away to Aston Villa.

The result means that Manchester United is now a point behind Premier League leaders Chelsea. Nani was shown a straight red card for a two-footed challenge on Stiliyan Petrov and will likely miss United’s next three matches.

With regard to the send off, Sir Alex Ferguson said “It’s a red card, Nani went in double-footed and he can’t do that. It was a naive tackle and the referee had no option”.

Ferguson went on to say “But Nani is not a malicious player”. “He has been doing so well for us and we’ll now miss him for the League Cup final”.

“He’s also missing two league games which is just as important.”
