EPL: It’s crazy – Ten Hag slams referees over Casemiro treatment

Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, has reacted to claims that Casemiro should have been sent off in the 2-1 win at Luton Town.

Casemiro picked up an eighth yellow card in his last 10 matches for a foul on Carlton Morris on Sunday.

The Brazilian midfielder then escaped a second booking for a late challenge on Ross Barkley.

After the match, Ten Hag claimed that Casemiro is often unfairly penalised by officials.

“Even when he is not touching opponents he gets booked. Often the first moment of the game,” Ten Hag told a press conference.

“I think it’s crazy and it was so unfair that first booking.

“That second could have been so that’s why I took him off. He touches an opponent and he gets booked.”
