'It's water under the bridge': Ole Gunnar Solskjaer draws a line under Chelsea refereeing controversy after both Man United boss and Luke Shaw escaped FA punishment for criticism of Stuart Attwell over Callum Hudson-Odoi 'handball'

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer maintained that Manchester United have forgotten about the furore to engulf their draw at Chelsea on Sunday.

Both Solskjaer and Luke Shaw escaped punishment by the Football Association for comments made surrounding Stuart Attwell's decision-making process at Stamford Bridge.

Attwell chose not to award United a penalty when Callum Hudson-Odoi appeared to handle inside the Chelsea box, with Shaw later suggesting he opted not to give it to avoid controversy.
