'Referee made it easy for Man Utd' – Silva rages at penalty for Martial's 'clear dive'

The Everton boss was far from pleased with the officials in Sunday's loss at Old Trafford, beginning with his decision to award a penalty to the hosts

Everton boss Marco Silva accused referee Jonathan Moss of making life "easier" for Manchester United in Sunday's Premier League match at Old Trafford.

The home side claimed a 2-1 win to move above Everton into eighth in the table, courtesy of goals from Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial.

Pogba's opener came after his penalty had been saved by Jordan Pickford, following Moss' decision to penalise Idrissa Gueye for a trip on Martial even though he made slight contact with the ball.
