Banned Bournemouth defender Mings ‘LOLs’ as Man Utd’s Rojo escapes FA charge

Tyrone Mings felt hardly done by after receiving a ban for allegedly stamping on Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The AFC Bournemouth defender was suspended for five matches by the FA after a retrospective charge from his side's 1-1 draw with Manchester United on March 4.

On Monday night, United centre-back Marcos Rojo appeared to stamp on the back of Chelsea's Eden Hazard during the FA Cup quarter-final at Stamford Bridge, but the FA has opted to take no further action against the Argentine, prompting a simple response from Mings.

The 23-year-old certainly has the right to feel aggrieved in what appears to be a case of double standards.
