Manchester United received a controversial penalty against Manchester City in the FA Cup final after VAR judged Jack Grealish to have handled the ball inside the box.

The English winger jumped up to contest a header with Aaron Wan-Bissaka and saw the United defender’s header deflect onto his arm.

While little was made of the incident initially, it was eventually decided that Grealish’s arm was in an unnatural position and a spot-kick was awarded.

City were then denied what looked to be a stonewall penalty at the other end.

Bruno Fernandes stepped up to take the penalty and made absolutely no mistake.

The United captain sent Stefan Ortega the wrong way to send the United fans at Wembley into raptures.
