‘Stretford strangler had a day off’ – Man Utd fans all say the same thing about Casemiro after he avoids Barcelona brawl

Players from both sides swarmed to each other, but Casemiro managed to restrain himself and instead walked away from the brawl.

The Brazilian has clearly learned his lesson following his red card for putting his hands on the neck of Will Hughes during the game against Crystal Palace.

And fans were full of praise for him on social media.

One commented: “The video was better. Casemiro literally turned around and walked away after initially approaching the scuffle haha.”
