Man United vs Leicester
The Red Devils had a blistering start to the match, with Amad Diallo and Bruno Fernandes pulling the strings.
Hence, it was no surprise when the duo combined to hand Manchester United the opener, with Diallo laying it off intelligently for Fernandes to fire a powerful, low, driven shot to the bottom corner.
Bruno Fernandes got the ball into the back of the net for the second time in the match in the 38th minute, but the goal was retrospectively determined to be a Victor Kristiansen own-goal.
The Portuguese was involved in Manchester United's third goal as well, setting up Garnacho, who struck brilliantly past Mads Hermansen.
Fernandes explains why Garnacho did not celebrate
After scoring in the 82nd minute, Garnacho, who is typically elaborate with goal celebrations, was rather muted. Fernandes, who assisted him for the goal, explained why that was the case.
"Garnacho scored a banger but didn't celebrate like he should because he thinks he has lost faith from some fans,” Fernandes told reporters. “I told him people will always moan but lots of people like you and enjoy what you do.
"I told him to celebrate; it was something special. He is a special player; we have difference-makers. They are the ones who win us games. We want them to score very game but that isn't going to happen.
