On Saturday, February 4, the match of the 22nd round of the English Football Championship between the clubs Manchester United and Crystal Palace took place. The game ended with the score 2:1 in favor of the Red Devils.
During one of the hosts’ attacks, Manchester United winger Anthony received the ball on the corner of the pitch. At that moment, he was knocked down by one of the Crystal Palace players, so much so that Anthony flew off almost a meter and ended up near advertising banners. Naturally, this moment did not go unnoticed by Anthony’s partners. Immediately, a brawl broke out on the field.
The Brazilian defensive midfielder also took part in it. Casemiro. He grabbed one of the guests by the neck and practically began to choke him. As a result, the Brazilian saw a red card in front of him and left the field, although he hugged his opponent after his actions.
Interestingly, Casemiro was sent off for the first time in his career.
