Fulham manager Marco Silva could not comprehend the decisions made by the referee against Manchester United in the FA Cup.

The Cottagers were 1-0 up in the contest when Willian deliberately handballed a Jadon Sancho shot that was going into the net.

The Brazilian was sent off, while his manager Silva also saw red for verbally abusing the referee.

Striker Aleksandar Mitrovic was then sent off as well, with Fulham losing with 9 men.

Speaking to ITV Sport, Silva said: "Let's talk about all the game and not just one moment.

“Until the penalty moment and the red cards, we were clearly the best team on the pitch. We were the best team on the pitch, clearly. For me it was a decision the VAR can take.

"What is difficult to understand is why the two moments in the box in the first half one of them is a clear penalty and nobody checks, nobody sees."
