Fans all say the same thing as Andy Carroll gets sent off vs Man Utd for two horror tackles in ‘crazy ten minutes’

FANS were all saying the same thing after Andy Carroll was sent off at Manchester United for two horror tackles in “10 minutes of madness.”

The Reading striker started his side’s 3-1 FA Cup fourth round defeat at Old Trafford on Saturday.

But he ended up taking an early bath after losing his head in the second half.

Carroll was given his first booking in the 59th minute for bashing into United’s Tyrell Malacia, with his shoulder making contact with the Dutchman’s face.

But instead of cooling down, the ex-Liverpool and Newcastle star continued to barrel around the field.

And not long after Carroll was given his marching orders for a bruising late challenge on Casemiro.

It prompted fans to flood Twitter as they reacted to the incident, with some reckoning he should have been sent off even earlier for some other wild tackles – including a scissor tackle on Christian Eriksen moments earlier.

One said: “Andy Carroll really wanted to be sent off didn’t he! Crazy 10 minutes of late challenges.”

Another declared: “1) Can’t believe Carroll still playing and 2) can’t believe not a straight red for the scissors on Eriksen. Dreadful – never rated him.”

One joked: “Andy Carroll still doing Andy Carroll things.”

And another added: “Andy Carroll is still alive!?”

Carroll’s dramatic behaviour came after United raced into a two-goal lead after the break thanks to a double from Casemiro.

Straight after Carroll’s red card, the hosts scored another through midfielder Fred.

Reading did manage to pull one back with 15 minutes remaining thanks to Amadou Salif Mbengue.

But it was too little, too late as United held on to book their spot in the next round.
