Manchester United’s hero Bruno Fernandes was spotted in a heated exchange with Casemiro against Aston Villa. Manchester United strengthened their grip on a top-four place by ending Aston Villa’s 10-match unbeaten run with a 1-0 win at Old Trafford.
Bruno Fernandes’ shot deflected over Emiliano Martinez late in the first half after the goalkeeper had pushed away Marcus Rashford’s attempt. Erik ten Hag’s team then had to overcome a late scare when Victor Lindelof cleared off the line from Douglas Luiz.
Erik ten Hag’s side, who drew 2-2 with Tottenham in midweek, secured a 1-0 win over Unai Emery’s men at Old Trafford. Bruno Fernandes scored the only goal of the game in the 39th minute to move the Reds one step closer to securing Champions League football for next season. United now sit two points behind third-placed Newcastle with a game in hand. The Reds have six top-flight matches remaining before the end of the season, with Ten Hag’s men travelling to Brighton on Thursday night hoping to increase the gap between themselves and their top-four chasing rivals.
Fernandes was United’s man of the moment again on Sunday when he arrived unmarked at the back post to notch the Red Devils ahead. However, Sunday proved to be a frustrating afternoon for Erik ten Hag’s side, as they struggled to break down Villa. United held on for a massive three points, which all but secured Champions League football for next season. But some eagle-eyed fans noticed United’s standards, as Casemiro fumed at the Brazilian following the full-time whistle at Old Trafford.
