Rangel admits to Old Trafford dive

Angel Rangel was shown a yellow card for diving in Swansea City's 2-1 loss to Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Swansea City defender Angel Rangel admits he deserved his yellow card for simulation in a 2-1 loss to Manchester United on Saturday.

Rangel went down in the box from a Matteo Darmian challenge just after the hour-mark as Swansea pushed for an equalizer against United.

Referee Jonathan Moss booked the Spaniard for diving, which Rangel admitted after the game to doing.

"I had a bit of a fight with [Callum] McManaman last week because he dived, but I did dive," he said.
