Liverpool beat Manchester 2-0 in their first European competition meeting at Anfield yesterday in the Europa League Last 16 first-leg clash.
One of the main talking points after the game other than the goals was whether United’s Fellaini intentionally elbowed Liverpool midfielder Emre Can.

We took to social media to delve into what United and Liverpool fans made of the incident.
Liverpool and Manchester United fans were involved in a quite a bit of banter directed at Fellaini. Reds supporters joked that they hope he does not get suspended for next weeks game after his poor performance during the first-leg.

Some United fans on the other hand have been praying for the FA to ban Fellaini for the return leg after the display he put on in the first-leg at Anfield.

There were also more serious tweets calling for Fellaini’s to be punished with violent conduct for his elbow on Can.

There were even a few tweeters who thought Can went down rather easy and that he made a meal out of the whole incident.

The big question however, was of course who would win in a fight between Can and Fellaini. The United man has a height advantage but Can is built like a tank which would probably make for an interesting matchup.

Who do you think would win?
