Ferguson: No complaints over card

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson had no complaints over the red card issued to Nani in the 1-1 draw at Aston Villa. The Portugal winger was dismissed for a two-footed tackle on Stilyian Petrov, meaning he will miss the Carling Cup Final later in the month. "It was a sending off," said the United boss of his side's sixth dismissal of the season. "It was a red card. It was a naive tackle. "He is not a malicious player but he has gone in with his foot raised off the ground and we cannot complain about it. "We should have had a foul seconds before when Agbonlahor came in with his foot up on Wes Brown's ribs. That was disappointing but we have no argument at all with the red card."
