On Thursday night, with the score at 1-1 in the Europa League playoff second leg match between Manchester United and Barcelona at Old Trafford, players from both teams and Casemiro, Barcelona’s midfielder, were seen ignoring the whole ordeal.
You may recall that Casemiro, a legendary Brazilian midfielder, has been sidelined by Manchester United for the past two league games after receiving a straight red card against Crystal Palace for engaging in a fight and grabbing Hughes by the throat.
Seems to have learned his lesson from the Crystal Palace game, refusing to even get involved in the fight between his teammates and Barcelona players on Thursday night at Old Trafford.
The 31-year-old Brazil international was spotted celebrating Fred’s equalizer with Bruno Fernandes, who assisted on the goal, after Manchester United’s 2-2 draw with Barcelona.
Antony Santos’ brilliant goal in the 73rd minute gave Manchester United the victory, 2-1, in the end.
