After Bruno Fernandes was booked for launching his boot in anger then Diogo Dalot saw red for a second yellow, the Red Devils were furious when Andy Madley awarded Arsenal a penalty.

Kai Havertz went down softly after a tussle with Harry Maguire in the area.

And with no VAR to check the incident, the two teams got into a major scrap.

Maguire was clearly apoplectic with Havertz going down and went after him as the melee unfolded - with some viewers thinking he called the German a cheat.

But as the former captain tried to remonstrate with Havertz, though, Gabriel got involved and shoved Maguire.

Havertz and Manuel Ugarte then clashed - with the pair both ending up on the deck in chaotic scenes.

Madley kept tabs on the chaos and booked Maguire, Gabriel and Havertz in the aftermath.

There was more drama when the game finally got back underway as Altay Bayindir flung himself across to save Martin Odegaard's penalty.
