And Red Devils fans spotted the alleged kick in replays of the incident.

Fred was given a yellow card for a cynical foul on Mount from behind as he received the ball early in the second half.

Mount held his leg after the bad tackle from Fred, but fans think they spotted a kick towards the Brazilian.

A social media post read: “Mason Mount gets brought down and Fred is booked.

“Mason Mount lashes out and kicks Fred and not one person says anything. Fred should’ve rolled round on the floor and Mount is off.

“Then everyone complains about players rolling around including myself but what choice do they have?”

One user wrote: “Did Mount kick out at Fred here? Should have been sent off surely? Letter of the law and that. Fred just didn’t make a fuss.”

Another tweed read: “Just me who saw Mason Mount kick out at Fred there and go unpunished???”
