Twitter Reacts as Paul Pogba Is Sent Off During Man Utd's First Defeat Under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Manchester United's unbeaten run under interim manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has come to an end after Paris Saint-Germain ran out comfortable 2-0 winners in the first leg of their Champions League last 16 clash at Old Trafford.

The visitors were well worthy of their win, but the game was marred by a number of controversial decisions made by referee Daniele Orsato.

One decision that seemed to unite all those watching on though was his decision to send off the mercurial Paul Pogba late on.

The Frenchman was penalised for a wild lunge on Brazilian full-back Dani Alves with just a few minutes remaining, receiving a second yellow card - though in truth, he could easily have been given a straight red given the reckless nature of the tackle.
