The Uruguayan midfielder was left bleeding on the pitch during United’s 7-0 victory over Barnsley.

Days after debuting for the Red Devils from the bench against Southampton, Ugarte began the Carabao Cup match.

The 23-year-old demonstrated his combative nature during the fiery first half at Old Trafford.

However, the former PSG star was ultimately defeated in a collision with the Tykes’ Luca Connell.

Some United supporters asserted that Connell “stamped” on the Uruguayan as he attempted to make a challenge; however, he was not issued a booking.

After Connell’s studs struck him, Ugarte was left with blood streaming down his leg.

Barnsley were awarded a free kick for a stamp on Ugarte, prompting a fan to express their frustration on X: “You cannot continue to perpetuate the bias against United.” Decision that is truly remarkable.”

After receiving medical attention on the pitch, the £50 million summer acquisition returned to the competition.

Upon his return to the ground, another fan expressed his amazement, stating, “I still cannot believe Ugarte has shed blood and is still on the pitch.” This is genuine enthusiasm for the clubman.”

A third individual commented: “Fantastic performance from Ugarte on his first start, a few less fouls given away would be good but he’s a warrior.”

Additionally, a fourth individual expressed the possibility that Ugarte was him.

Bruno Fernandes succeeded Ugarte after a productive 63 minutes of work.

Barnsley was defeated by United on a difficult evening for the League One team.

The South Yorkshire team managed to maintain their position for only 16 minutes before the floodgates were opened, despite the support of 6,500 vocal supporters.

Marcus Rashford initiated the proceedings for the host team by scoring in consecutive matches for the first time since March.

Eric Ten Hag’s team refused to reduce the intensity, as Anthony and Alejandro Garnacho made it 3-0 before halftime.

Garnacho and Rashford each scored an additional goal following the break, and Christian Eriksen scored twice off the bench to conclude the rout.
