Gabriel Agbonlahor aimed a furious rant at the Premier League after Manchester United 's 2-1 comeback win over Crystal Palace .
United were handed a controversial penalty , and Crystal Palace defender Maxence Lacroix was shown a red card following a VAR review.
The decision changed the direction of the match, with Michael Carrick's side recovering from 1-0 down to claim all three points.
Agbonlahor suggested the league favours certain clubs in the race for the Champions League places.
The incident came after Bruno Fernandes slipped a pass through to Matheus Cunha inside the box.
Lacroix was declared to have pulled the Brazilian down, prompting referee Chris Kavanagh to award a penalty.
After being directed to the VAR monitor, Kavanagh upgraded the decision to a dismissal.
"After review, Crystal Palace number five commits a clear holding offence which denies a clear, obvious goal scoring opportunity," he said. "Final decision is penalty and red card."
Fernandes converted from the spot to level the match before Benjamin Sesko later completed the turnaround. Agbonlahor was unimpressed.
"So Manchester United get a penalty for a blatant dive. We're all wasting our time guys; they want certain teams in the top four!" he wrote.
"Red card for Palace as well, what the f—! Done with football and won't be watching any more games this week."
The former Aston Villa forward's comments reflect a belief that bigger clubs benefit at crucial moments.

Agbonlahor's criticism extended beyond Man Utd's penalty decision against Palace.
Following Arsenal's 2-1 win over Chelsea , where all three goals came from set pieces, he questioned the overall entertainment value of the league.
"More and more people are starting to agree with me! The Premier League is boring now!" he added.
" Arsenal will go down as winning the worst Premier League in years! Remember watching Pep's Barcelona ?
"Name a team you really look forward to watching play? Time to start previewing the World Cup."
His comments underline growing debate among pundits and fans over officiating and quality throughout the league.
