Bruno Fernandes managed to wind up everyone associated with Liverpool during Manchester United’s 2-1 victory at Old Trafford on Monday night.
The Portuguese midfielder angered Liverpool’s players, coaching staff and supporters by holding onto the ball after Mohamed Salah scored to make it 2-1 with 10 minutes remaining.
Fernandes appeared keen to waste as much time as possible but it was a risky tactic considering he was already on a yellow card.
Referee Michael Oliver opted against booking Fernandes, United’s captain for the night in place of the benched Harry Maguire, for a second time – a decision some felt was lenient.
