Manchester United youngster Kobbie Mainoo was subjected to a questionable yellow card at Kenilworth Road on Sunday afternoon.
David Coote was referee for Manchester United’s 2-1 win over Luton Town.
The Premier League official will be criticised for his performance in a game he was trigger happy when it came to yellow cards, even though Erik ten Hag admitted Casemiro’s foul on Ross Barkley was worthy of a yellow card which would have been his second in the first half.
Casemiro escaped that booked but the manager still opted to replace the Brazilian at half-time because he was walking a tightrope with the referee at Kenilworth Road.
However, Coote booked Kobbie Mainoo after 75 minutes for what was a perfectly clean tackle on Luton Town winger Jordan Clark.
Check out the video below which shows Mainoo winning the ball without many any contact with Clark.
