[THREAD] I see the “14 penalties” agenda spreading on Twitter so I decided to address that. Here’s the foul/illegal play behind each of the 14 penalties awarded for MUFC this season.
1. Chelsea (H)
Zouma is late and clumsy. Stonewall penalty.

4. Leicester (H)
Bit of controversy around this one, but the side angle shows that Soyuncu is late and wipes Rashford out. Penalty.

5. Norwich (A) - first penalty.
Second most contentious penalty out of all the penalties awarded for MUFC this season. James is falling on Godfrey rather than the Norwich defender taking him out. Solskjaer at the time admitted that this shouldn’t have been a penalty. 50/50.

Not a penalty. The decision should have been overturned and given as a foul on Konsa.

14. Leicester (A)
Martial clattered by the two Leicester centre backs. The penalty was awarded due to the challenge by Wes Morgan, but there’s enough to give it from Evans’ side as well.

On the other hand, we had two valid penalty shouts.
First one is Martial vs Crystal Palace (H).
