The Manchester United manager claims that he ‘could not believe it’ when Liverpool striker Luis Suarez refused to shake http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Patrice-Evra-c29231’s hand before kick-off.
Manchester United played host to their bitter rivals, Liverpool, in another entertaining Barclays Premier League encounter, in a match that had plenty of talking points.
In fact, the first talking point in the match came before the whistle, when Luis Suarez who had his first start since his eight match ban, refused to shake the hand of Manchester United skipper, Patrice Evra.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 manager, Kenny Dalglish remained reluctant to talk about the incident blaming the media for blowing the preceding incident out of proportion and adding to the tension. The Red’s manager tried to keep his post-match interview towards the footballing
side, stating that United deserved the win and rued a slow start to the second half.
Sir Alex Ferguson however, went on the offensive and highlighted the lack of handshake.
“I could not believe it, I just could not believe it.” Stated a bewildered Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752, “He’s a disgrace to Liverpool Football Club, that certain player should not be allowed to play for Liverpool again.”
He continued, “The history that club’s got and he does that in a situation like today could have cause a riot.”

The incident was met with a huge uproar from the United supporters who were very vocal in what they thought of Suarez throughout the match.
”I was really disappointed in that guy, it was terrible what he did.”
It seemed there was no stopping the fuming Sir Alex as he continued, “It created a tension, you’ve seen the referee didn’t know what to do about it.”
The Manchester United manager continued to highlight that racism needs to be kicked out of the game.
However, the veteran manager also displayed his class when he admitted that Patrice Evra should not have celebrated in front of Suarez the way he did when the final whistle blew.
One can understand the United manager’s point of view and can be sure, that the Suarez-Evra fire is set to burn on for some time longer.
