With this Sunday's draw at Old Trafford against Leicester City, Manchester United could not get past the Foxes but also prevented them from claiming the title as their own at Old Trafford. After the match, manager Louis Van Gaal was asked to explain the incident in which a penalty on Fellaini from Huth wasn't called by the referee. The Dutchman attempted to recreate the same situation in which the Foxes player clearly grabbed the Belgian midfielder by the hair.
Talking to Sky Sports, Van Gaal did his usual antics whilst trying to explain what happened during that penalty that wasn't called: "When you see what Huth is doing with Fellaini it is a penalty. Shall I grab you with your hair? What is your reaction? Your hair is much shorter. I think [Fellaini's] is a normal reaction. Every human being grabbed with the hair would react in this way. Grabbed with the hair, only with sex, masochism [is that okay]."
He added: "Huth was the one who grabbed the hair of Fellaini. I think the action of Fellaini is the action of a human being. It is always like that. I think we played one of our best matches of the season and it was not enough. We created a lot of chances. You have to score and they scored off a set play again. They are very dangerous with that, we know that. We are still in the race but it is a lot tougher."
