Because the rules changed this season to a 3 game minimum.
I've no doubt that he did anything wrong or out of malice. Nonetheless, I've no problem with it as it sets a benchmark that will get rid of any grey areas for future cases.
Having said that I'm disappointed. I expected him to get off and United to be awarded a penalty at the start of their next three games for the inconvenience.
