“I don’t think it’s a booking,” team manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was quoted as saying by Express.

“I haven’t seen the video but he’s so quick so you’ve got to tell me if there’s contact or not. But he does get kicked so many times and I think he gets loads of yellow cards for the defenders playing against him and sometimes he gets fouled and it doesn’t look like a foul,” he added about the incident.

“I don’t think it’s a yellow card anyway, from live viewing,” Solskjaer concluded.
