Mount, 26, watched from the sidelines due to injury. Consequently, he missed 13 games since the 2-1 win over Man City in mid-December.

Overall, Mount has played in 12 games and started six of them. Thus, he clocked 403 minutes without a goal or an assist.

Many believe the goal should have been disallowed for offside. Moreover, VAR was introduced only from the fifth round this season, which limited review opportunities.

Instead of debating the decision, Mount chose silence on the field. Ultimately, he simply posted “Limbs!!” on Instagram to address Maguire.

Notably, Maguire has started 17 out of 24 games this season. Additionally, he scored two goals and logged 1,576 minutes, though he did not provide any assists.

Now, United secure a place in the FA Cup fifth round. Additionally, they will face Tottenham on February 16th in the Premier League.
