Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim leaped to the defence of Patrick Dorgu after a turbulent match against Ipswich.
Amorim’s support came swiftly following a controversial red card decision.
Early in the game, a mix-up between Dorgu and Andre Onana gifted Ipswich an early lead. The goal came in the fourth minute, jolting United’s momentum.
The 20-year-old Dorgu then faced further trouble. He received a red card for a harsh challenge on Omari Hutchinson just before half-time.
