Man U's Lukaku escapes sanction for alleged kick
MANCHESTER United striker Romelu Lukaku has escaped a Football Association sanction for his alleged kick at Brighton’s Gaetan Bong.
Images appeared to show the 24-year-old kicking out twice at the Albion defender just before Ashley Young’s strike deflected in off Lewis Dunk to secure Jose Mourinho’s men a 1-0 win.
Lukaku was left sweating on FA action as retrospective punishment for violent conduct would incur a three-match ban, ruling him out of the derby clash with Manchester City.
