Every other team in the country could pick eight dubious or incorrect decisons made against their team too.
It happens.
I think last season was worse to be honest, Newcastle and stoke still pee me off now! But hey take it on the chin and move on, Chelsea at the weekend!
No point stooping to the level of rival fans with articles like this. Suck it up and smash the rest of the league.
To be fair Nanis was a clear red card
He jumped and booted him in the chest with his studs

Lets Murder Chelsea this weekend. It'd put the bitter taste of last night behind us!
Stop crying Ffs .. It's not the first time it's ever happened to team, just get over it. RVP was offside for the first goal, were you upset about that terrible decision ? Or the fact that Madrid had a good goal ruled out? These things happen
If you think that was a red, you're an idiot. He had his eyes on the ball and the ball only. It's not his fault Arbeloa ran into his leg.
Hajifur would know.
He has a dossier.
Ruiney
In the laws of the game it is a red If he knew he was there or not its a red card for dangerous play
You cant jump that high with your feet in the air with your studs showing
How was Madrids goal good? It was a blatant foul and RVP wasn't involved in the 1st goal you idiot.
Blatant, blatant red card. Anybody that says otherwise is having trouble being impartial.
I know you all feel bitter and cheated but the more time you have to reflect the less it will hurt
The more you watch it the more you can see how blatant a red it is.. he booted him in the red ffs..
It reminded me of Xabi Alonso against Wesley Sjneider ( i think it was) in the world cup final.. If ones a red so is the other
This may help United fans feel less cheated

It's never been a red. Shut up you tool.
Pacaozinho..
So you think its acceptable on a field of play to jump and stud someone in the chest
Are you an idiot?
Can't believe you're even trying to justify the red. That and you lot moaning about Juve's defending in the box, your refs in Scotland must be fecking pansys.
It wasn't a red, he tried to control the ball and almost did. It was unlucky, the guy wasn't that hurt, there was absolutely no malice. The idiot is you. Get back to watching your awesome league.
He didn't stud him in the chest you fool, the side of the boot made contact with Arbeloa because he ran into it from an angle. How do people watch stuff and come to such BS conclusions?
1. Van Persie goal - wasn't over the line.
2. Ashley Young was offside. Maybe give strikers the benefit of doubt, but to me there was clear daylight.
3. Evra dived.
4. Not enough contact.
5. Don't remember this.
6. For what? Yellow card at most.
7. Evra should have had a penalty in the 2nd leg - far too used to bias premier league refs. Anyone outside of the UK or Asia wouldn't have given a pen.
8. Perfect decision to send Nani off. High boot, dangerous play, red card. Much more of a red that what you think Varane should have been sent off for.
how about Rafaels game saving handball? Casillas would be proud of that.
If you think that was a red, you're an idiot. He had his eyes on the ball and the ball only. It's not his fault Arbeloa ran into his leg
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was a red... no law suggests anything about intent. Dangerous play is exactly that regardless of what you are looking at or what you are trying to do...
if I remember correctly a few united fans on this board were all for telling us that when Shelvey got sent off against you lot an Anfield??? It doesnt matter what he was trying to do (which was controlling the ball) it only matters what did occur (which was his studs in the chest of the defender). I dont agree with the law as I stated in Shelvey's case but it is the law.
So in short, I dont agree that it should be a red but in the laws it is...end of.
ps... I do love keane for saying it!
pps... anyone spotted ol' red face yet or is he still in hiding
(which was his studs in the chest of the defender).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
or at least at chest height of a defender who was jumping! if contact was made its a red.
A whole host of quotes from professionals in the sport saying the decision was a bad one. Only one saying it was right and that was Roy Keane who has an agenda against United. If that was a red, Keane should be serving life in jail for his assault. Clown of a man.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The reaction
Former Manchester United midfielder Roy Keane on ITV: "I think the referee has actually made the right call. Everyone's upset about it and it's slightly unlucky, but it's dangerous play. Whether he meant it or not is irrelevant. It's dangerous play - it's a red card. You have to be aware of other players on the pitch. Does he think he's going to have 20 yards to himself? Whether it's [a brave decision] or not, it's the right decision. Whether he meant it or not doesn't matter. Nani's a quick boy to go down anyway. He's not the bravest player on the planet."

“Been going to Old Trafford since age of five and I've never seen the whole ground as in disbelief as they were last night at a decision”
Gary Neville on Twitter
Retired referee Dermot Gallagher on BBC Radio 5 live: "[The decision was] harsh to say the least, but in fairness the Real player did Nani no favours whatsoever. At worst Nani catches the underside of his arm, certainly not the ribs as the guy has gone down and shown.
"I can't reiterate enough that he [Nani] is watching the ball over his shoulder, there was no malice in him. At worst it was a yellow for dangerous play, but if I was refereeing that game I cannot see by what stretch of the imagination I would have sent him off for that."
Manchester United assistant manager Mike Phelan: "The manager is not in a state to talk to the referee about the decision. I think it speaks volumes I am here speaking now and not the manager of this fantastic football club. The decision seemed very harsh, possibly incredible at that moment in the game."
Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho: "I can say for certain Arbeloa did not feign contact. It was quite strong and he was shown a red. It could have been a yellow. Playing with a man down for such a long period of time is going to change a lot. When we were against 10, we played very well for 10 minutes. We gave them a new problem they couldn't solve."

Everton manager David Moyes on BBC Radio 5 live: "I think tonight Sir Alex Ferguson will be rightly as angry as he has ever been. The decision changed the game. I am looking from a manager's point of view and Manchester United have had a hard time tonight. I think they have a right to surround the referee. The decision was poor and it has cost them the biggest prize in football."
Former Liverpool and Germany midfielder Dietmar Hamann on Sky Sports: "He wants to bring it down, I think no Real Madrid player expected it, nobody was claiming a red card. He didn't see him he didn't mean to do it, it's not even a booking."
Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville on Twitter : " Been going to Old Trafford since age of five and I've never seen the whole ground as in disbelief as they were last night at a decision.
"Nani is a player who regularly tries to control a pass like this over his shoulder and its never a red card. Changed the whole game. Poor ref. The crowd actually weren't angry / weren't shouting they were just open mouthed and in shock. Just ruined a fascinating match and didn't feel right to Utd or Madrid people in the stadium."
Former Manchester United player Lou Macari on BBC Radio 5 live: "This referee had plenty of time last night - there were players lying down waiting to get treatment during that thinking time.
"I couldn't believe it, like everyone at Old Trafford, when he pulled out a red card. It was simply a wrong decision. I'm sure when he looks at it this morning, he will realise it was wrong.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Read this, didn't bother reading the rest.
If you manhandle someone in the box to deny them a goal then yes that is a yellow. Red if it is persistent.
If you boot someone in the chest that is a red
Oh and at least were still in the Champions league
The crowd actually weren't angry / weren't shouting they were just open mouthed and in shock

This, I was sat there expecting a booking and a Real free kick, he pulls out the red and then I just sat there for 5 minutes open mouthed staring at the tele. It was only a few minutes later that I was annoyed.
