Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial have both missed a penalty each for Manchester United in their game against Norwich City this afternoon.
United go into the lead 2-0 at the break but the main talking point has been the penalties that the Red Devils received and subsequently missed.
The first was given rather dubiously after Dan James went down in the box.
