Manchester United Boss Mourinho was sent to the stands by the referee in charge Craig Pawson after the fourth official Mike Jones in the 90th minute called him. Mourinho earlier appeared to trespass to the pitch and applaud Herrera to trail back after Mario Lemina skipped past Antonio Valencia. 

The fourth official told Mourinho to retreat to the technical area perimeter but then he had already communicated with Pawson before the official sent Mourinho off.

"I don't know," Mourinho replied when he was asked why he was dismissed. "I don't know. Craig told me to leave and I left. I don't know. He told me to leave, I left.”

Mourinho was asked if he collided with the linesman.

"No, with the fourth official." He replied.

Lukaku's eighth goal in as many games in the 20th minute settled a stressful win for United and Mourinho is certain that the lack of glare in Manchester contributed to certain players' lackluster displays.

"I think they were really tired," Mourinho added. "Nine of them didn't play midweek, so nine of them was not even accumulation of fatigue, I think the weather was beautiful, even if we trained 11 o'clock, 12 o'clock, or 3 o'clock, in Manchester we don't get this weather.

"The last time we had this was in Los Angeles and then in Macedonia and I think they felt, I saw some players not sharp, great spirit, always trying but not the same sharpness, so when your opponent is coming with everything at you, and let's do it for 10 or 15 minutes and we were solid." Mourinho concluded.
