Andy Cole: Former Man United striker echoes Carrick’s anger Manchester United shared the spoils on Friday night in the Premier League. Bournemouth result The Red Devils came away with a 2-2 draw at the Vitality Stadium against AFC Bournemouth. It was hardly a vintage display from Michael Carrick’s side, but they will be disappointed to have taken the lead twice, only to throw away two points.

Fans and players were outraged by the decision not to award Amad a penalty, and then moments later Ryan Christie provided the Cherries with their first equaliser. The Reds were even more incensed later when Harry Maguire was penalised in the box for a similar-looking action to the Amad non-penalty, and to add insult to injury, he was also sent off. Both Michael Carrick and Bruno Fernandes spoke after the match and expressed their exasperation with the referee’s decision.

Andy Cole Speaking on Sky Sports , former Manchester United striker Andy Cole was also left bemused by the fact United were not awarded a second penalty of the night. Whilst discussing the moment Ivorian Amad went down in the area, Cole said, “I was saying in in today’s game for me, it’s a penalty. Yeah.

When we were playing, no chance. Absolutely no chance. It’s very physical in today’s game, you know, and we’re going to see the other penalty in a minute.
