Bruno Fernandes has been slammed and branded a “coward” after fans spotted what he did in Manchester United’s 4-3 Carabao Cup defeat to Spurs.
After a late derby win over rivals Manchester City on Sunday, the Red Devils were looking to progress to the Carabao Cup semi finals but found themselves 3-0 after Dominic Solanke bagged a brace either side of a strike from Dejan Kulusevski.
Fraser Forster gifted two goals for Joshua Zirkzee and Amad Diallo by trying to play out from the back when pressed, before Heung-Min Son scored directly from a corner to make it 4-2.
But he was also involved in an incident with the 18-year-old Swede, with the two engaging in a battle in midfield. After Bergvall left one on Fernandes, the United skipper knocked the youngster over in an off-the-ball incident.
Play continued and there was no punishment for Fernandes, who was controversially sent off in the league meeting. But while the incident wasn’t seen by many, footage was shared online and saw Fernandes panned for his antics.
