David Moyes blasts referee Howard Webb

Moyes blasts referee Webb

Manchester United manager David Moyes has blasted referee Howard Webb for not awarding his team a second-half penalty against Tottenham Hotspur.

Ashley Young went over from a sliding challenge by Hugo Lloris as his team trailed 2-1 at Old Trafford, but Webb was not interested in the appeals.

Moyes was left incensed by the decision, which was compounded by Adnan Januzaj receiving a yellow carded for simulation moments later.

"It was a stonewall penalty kick and sending-off for the goalkeeper," the Scot told BT Sport. "I find it unbelievable that the referee doesn't give a penalty kick and a sending off.

"Then he goes and books Adnan Januzaj for diving. I find it incredible.

"People who employ referees are going to have to look at that. We're not asking for anything, we're asking for the right thing. I don't know what's a penalty kick if that's not."

United ended up losing 2-1, leaving them seventh in the Premier League.
