Watch Man Utd boss Solskjaer act out Hudson-Odoi handball to linesman during Chelsea clash
MANCHESTER UNITED boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was left frustrated after they were denied a penalty against Chelsea on Sunday.
Blues forward Callum Hudson-Odoi appeared to move his arm towards the ball in his own box and flick it away from Mason Greenwood.
But when referee Stuart Atwell was advised by the VAR to go over to the screen on the side of the pitch, he decided it was not worthy of a penalty.
Both sets of players berated the official as he checked the incident from various angles.
Indeed, replays suggested the ball took a definite touch off Hudson-Odoi’s hand, which was being raised upwards during the incident.
Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville was adamant a penalty would be awarded.
But the ref left Man Utd gobsmacked as he instead dismissed the claims and restarted the game with a free-kick for the visitors in their own half.
And Solskjaer was forced to gesticulate with the assistant referee, attempting to demonstrate how he saw the incident.
However, the assistant appeared to disagree with the Norwegian, who voiced his anger again after the match.
