HARRY MAGUIRE was sent off for a clumsy tackle in the second half of Manchester United’s crushing 4-1 defeat at the hands of Watford as his Red Devils woes went from bad to worse.
United were trailing the Hornets 2-1 in the second half when the club captain was sent off for a second bookable offence.
The England international took one touch too many causing him to lose control of the ball.
Former United midfielder Tom Cleverley got a vital touch and he was brought down rather strongly by Maguire shortly after.
United collapsed late on as Watford scored two more to secure a historic win.
Maguire will only miss one game through suspension.
But that game comes against table toppers Chelsea, a game which would have been regarded as one to watch in the title race at the start of the season.
Maguire was in fine form for England just last week, scoring two in both of the Three Lions’ final World Cup qualifying games.

The Red Devils have just one win in their last seven Premier League outings.
