FANS were all saying the same thing after Andy Carroll was sent off at Manchester United for two horror tackles in "10 minutes of madness."<br /><br />The Reading striker started his side's 3-1 FA Cup fourth-round defeat at Old Trafford on Saturday.<br /><br />But he ended up taking an early bath after losing his head in the second half.<br /><br />Carroll was given his first booking in the 59th minute for bashing into United's Tyrell Malacia, with his shoulder making contact with the Dutchman's face.<br /><br />But instead of cooling down, the ex-Liverpool and Newcastle star continued to barrel around the field.<br /><br />And not long after Carroll was given his marching orders for a bruising late challenge on Casemiro.<br /><br />It prompted fans to flood Twitter as they reacted to the incident, with some reckoning he should have been sent off even earlier for some other wild tackles - including a scissor tackle on Christian Eriksen moments earlier.<br /><br />One said: "Andy Carroll really wanted to be sent off didn't he! Crazy 10 minutes of late challenges."<br /><br />Another declared: "1) Can’t believe Carroll still playing and 2) can’t believe a straight red for the scissors on Eriksen. Dreadful - never rated him."<br /><br />One joked: "Andy Carroll still doing Andy Carroll things."<br /><br />And another added: "Andy Carroll is still alive!?"<br /><br />Carroll's dramatic behavior came after United raced into a two-goal lead after the break thanks to a double from Casemiro.<br /><br />Straight after Carroll's red card, the hosts scored another through midfielder Fred.<br /><br />Reading did manage to pull one back with 15 minutes remaining thanks to Amadou Salif Mbengue.<br /><br />But it was too little, too late as United held on to book their spot in the next round.
