Sheffield United boss, Chris Wilder blamed match referee for their 2-0 defeat against English Premier League EPL defending champion, Manchester City on Sunday.
The referee should have stopped the game after getting in the way of a pass which led to Manchester City taking the lead on their way to victory over Sheffield United, says Blades boss Chris Wilder.
The visitors were upset Sergio Aguero’s goal was allowed to stand because referee Chris Kavanagh was in the way of John Fleck who miscontrolled the ball, which allowed Kevin de Bruyne to set up the Argentine.
De Bruyne added the second as Sheffield United lost away from home for the first time since 19 January.
“I’ve been to see the referee and he has been honest about it. We make mistakes and I believe he made one too,” Wilder told BBC Sport.

“It happened that quick and I thought he could have been helped by his colleagues a little bit.
“We talk about the new rule where if the referee touches the ball then he has to blow his whistle and stop play, so surely if he is in the way and hinders us then he has to make a sensible decision.
“He should do the sensible and correct thing. I am not saying we would have won the game, or got a result, but it changes the game.”
