Actually if you watched Match of the Day, they showed other angles where Casemiro is holding Hughes' shirt, and not neck. And shortly after, Casmiro held his hands up after both were away from the melee. The ref was shown a biased angle by the VAR. Another video has also emerged showing them having a hug afterwards, obviously no malice.
Utd is said to be considering an appeal.
As for WW, he seemed to be suffering "Lukaku first touch" syndrome. Gets into promising positions but kept losing the ball. Not surprised he got yanked off and it turned out to be another good sub by ten Hag, as WW's replacement Garnacho was key in setting up the second goal.
