Sky Sports pundits Roy Keane and Micah Richards were both left astonished by the decision.
“It is embarrassing. This is not football anymore,” Richards exclaimed. "This is spoiling the game. I don't recognise our game anymore.
“It is an absolutely ridiculous decision. That is never a foul.”
Keane, meanwhile, chipped in: “I'm amazed. If that was a foul [in the build-up to United's 'goal'], we should all go home.
“For a player to roll around like that is embarrassing. That can't be a foul.”
Jamie Redknapp was similarly astonished by the call.
“What are you meant to do, run with your arms down by your side? Son tries to grab him and he puts his arm out. That's what you do in football. You are always trying to use your arms as leverage,” he said. “It is never a foul. It is ridiculous.”
