Sagna asked to explain post
Manchester City defender Bacary Sagna has been asked to explain comments he made on social media after his side's 2-1 win over Burnley.
City were reduced to ten men just after the half hour mark when referee sent off midfielder Fernandinho for a reckless and dangerous tackle on Burnley midfielder Johann Berg Gudmundsson.
Despite his side going on to claim all three points, Sagna was unhappy with Mason's decision to show a red card to Fernandinho and took to social media to express his frustration.
Alongside an image of the team celebrating, Sagna wrote on Instagram: "10 against 12.. but still fighting and winning as a team. #together #mancity #youfreetothinkwhateveryouwant"
He has since deleted the post but the Football Association has asked for an explanation.
Sagna has until 5pm on Friday to respond.
