Carrick Slams Controversial Ref Decisions and Praises United’s Fight After Leeds Loss

Carrick Slams Controversial Ref Decisions and Praises United’s Fight After Leeds Loss — 1 of 2
1 / 2

Manchester United interim coach Michael Carrick admitted his side got off to a poor start in the 2-1 defeat by Leeds at Old Trafford. He raised his voice at key officiating calls, saying that Noah Okafor’s opener should have been ruled out for a foul on Leny Yoro and describing Lisandro Martinez’s red card for tugging a ponytail as “one of the worst” VAR decisions he’s seen. Despite going down to 10 men, Carrick commended his players for their resilience in the second half as they fought back through a Casemiro header from Bruno Fernandes’s delivery, even though they couldn’t complete the comeback.

It's curious that Carrick points fingers at refereeing, yet the team's midfield looked disjointed long before any controversial calls.

Blaming officials feels like an easy out; United's defensive errors and poor marking really handed Leeds that opener.

United need to tighten their defensive structure and focus on set piece drills before the next fixture to prevent repeats.
