The former England right-back told ITV: “Absolute foul throw. should be fined a week’s wages for that. “How can you not throw a ball in?” It appeared Mazraoui was lining up a routine throw down the right flank.

Old Trafford chief Ruben Amorim stunned fans by starting the left wing-back down his weaker flank. And Dorgu was hauled off at half-time for Alejandro Garnacho.

Mazraoui’s defensive partner Harry Maguire then headed a controversial 93rd-minute clincher against his old club.
