📸 VAR dishes out red card after hair pulling incident at Old Trafford
Manchester United have imploded on Monday night at home to Leeds United all within an hour.
After conceding two goals in the first half, including one within five minutes, the mood was later damaged by a straight red card early in the second.
While attempting to mark Dominic Calvert, Lisandro Martinez opted to pull the hair of the Leeds star to prevent him from heading a ball.
VAR caught the moment and quickly intervened, to which the referee easily dished out a straight red for violent conduct.
It leaves victory virtually out of sight for Michael Carrick's side. It also means Martinez will miss the upcoming clash against Chelsea.
The half-time boos from home fans will be quite loud come full time, we're sure.
