“Fans Demand Kyle Walker’s Red Card After Controversial Rasmus Højlund Incident in Manchester Derby”

Kyle Walker and Rasmus Højlund collided during the first half.

Fans believe Kyle Walker should have been sent off after his fiery confrontation with Rasmus Højlund in the first half of the Manchester City vs. Manchester United match.

The opening 30 minutes were uneventful until Josko Gvardiol broke the deadlock with a header in the 36th minute.

The game then ignited as Walker and Højlund clashed, sparking a full-blown brawl.

Players from both teams tangled as referee Anthony Taylor handed yellow cards to Walker and Højlund for their involvement in the incident.

However, social media users argue that Walker should have received a red card. They believe he should have been booked for the initial foul and then shown a second yellow for simulation, as he fell to the ground despite no contact from the Manchester United forward.

One X user commented: “Kyle Walker should get a yellow for the foul and another for going down like that. Unbelievable.”

A second user wrote: “Kyle Walker should be sent off for that – a booking for the foul and another for going down like that. Horrendous.”

A third added: “That should have been two yellows for Walker, one for the initial foul and another for that embarrassing dive.”

A fourth fumed: “Kyle Walker should be sent off. Pathetic.”

Another commenter said: “Walker should get a yellow for the foul and a yellow for the dive.”

At halftime, Roy Keane criticized Walker.

“How can Walker go down like that? He must be embarrassed,” he exclaimed.

“I don’t know the guy, but I’m embarrassed for him. It’s just embarrassing,” he added.
